Gut bugs linked to antipsychotic weight gain in youth
NCT ID NCT03414151
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how gut bacteria change when young people (ages 12-35) with psychosis start taking antipsychotic medication. Researchers want to see if these changes are linked to weight gain and other metabolic problems. Participants provide stool and blood samples over 12 weeks. The goal is to better understand why these medications cause weight gain, not to test a new treatment.
