Does Kynmobi cause hair loss or weight gain?

Category: Kynmobi

In Kynmobi clinical trials, there were no reports of hair loss or weight gain related to the therapy. However, because the medication may cause impulse control disorders, including compulsive eating, some patients may experience weight gain while taking Kynmobi. Patients should talk with their healthcare team if they experience any unanticipated effects of treatment.
