Forteo weight gain…anyone experience this?

I've gained close to 8 pounds since March/April since on Forteo, noticing my once tiny waistline disappear. Lilly says they've never heard of this but the belly fat and weight gain is real. Anyone else have this? I also find that taking it at night is better as I don't feel like I have to push myself through the day or take a nap.

Hi tricia225. My endo has suggested Forteo. I haven't started it yet. Are you using the brand name Forteo or generic brand Teriparatide? Just curious as these are my options. Thanks

I have taken Tymlos and it made me gain weight and belly fat I hate it . I’m going to stop it and start on Forteo in a few weeks , I read that it could cause weight loss , for me I hope I lose instead of gaining weight.
