Daughter has been on it for several weeks and is experiencing a ten pound weight gain in 2-3 weeks. She says only 6% of people taking it have weight gain. Anyone with experience?

I was on that med for awhile..it was said to cause less of a weight gain than most of the other anti-psychotics. Although that entire class of drugs seems to cause more of a weight gain than the others i.e. anti-depressants.
