Heya.
I'm on the zuclopenthixol depo.
I'll try and answer your questions as best as I can!
It doesn't hurt getting it done. the nurses that administer the depo do it all the time so they're pretty good at it.
I haven't experienced any weight gain on the depo. If anything it's curbed my appetite.
I don't get tired on it either. Although I do get a bit spaced out occasionally but it's not too bad at all.
I haven't noticed any side effects apart from the lack of appetite.
It took a few injections to start having an effect on my symptoms and they have to adjust the dose. Usually they'll start off with a test dose and work up from there.
Hope this helps!
