Yes there are some indirect side effects like sleeping tendencies and weight gain. Weight gain is not related to the tablets. But medicine creates leathery feeling due to that people's likes to be in sedentary lifestyles. So it's better to taper the doses slowly by consulting your psychiatrist. And maintain regular exercises vegetarian diet and avoid fried and junk food. And do yoga and pranayama. And keep your mind relaxed.
