Has anyone been put on a cholesterol lowering drug and gained weight? My dr. just put me on Crestor :grumble: and I've gained 2 lbs in a short amount of time - not changing my diet or exercise. Frustrating....

How often do you weigh yourself? Your body weight can vary by several pounds on the same day or w/in a couple of days. Most people recommend weighing no more than 1x per week. I think if you see a steady trend upward I'd contact your physician. Also, you could read the package insert to see if weight gain is a potential side effect. Good luck,
