I don't remember the dosage. Probably 450-600 mg.
I think it took a while to notice the weight gain, at least a number of weeks as I usually don't look for it but my clothes started to fit
tighted. Mostly the medicine made me really drowsy
and drunk feeling and greatly increased my appetite. I think the sluggishness may have been an indicator of slower metabolism. I dunno. Plus the pigging out definately was a whammy. When I quit the medicine I stopped the weight gain. The vast majority of people don't gain weight on Serzone.
