I once wrote down this type of antidepressant on scratch paper when I saw Dr. Oz show a long time ago but didnt write what NRDDI stood for .. He said these types of antidepressants cause NO weight Gain.. so am wondering if anyone knows what is  NRDDI antidepressant is?

Bupropion

Bupropion, a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI), is the antidepressant that causes the most weight loss. Kristi Monson, PharmD, and Arthur Schoenstadt, MD, authors of the 2007 eMedTV article "Wellbutrin and Weight Loss," state the 28 percent of patients who use bupropion have a weight loss of five pounds or more. The weight loss, however, is connected to the other side effects of the drug, such as vomiting, nausea and loss of appetite. If the patient continues to have weight loss after the other side effects end, she should report the weight loss to her doctor.

When you sit down with your Pdoc, make very sure he is aware of your wls.  Tell him part of your depression was due to weight gain and its critical you dont go down that path again.  He has a slew of meds that he can put you on where weight gain is not a side effect.  There are new ones coming out all the time.  Just be honest.  Best of luck.

Thoughts become things... choose the good ones!
