Which drug is NOT known to cause weight loss?

  1. Bupropion

  2. Pramlintide

  3. Insulin

  4. GLP1 agonists

The correct answer is: Insulin

While Bupropion, Pramlintide, and GLP1 agonists have been shown to potentially cause weight loss, insulin is not known to cause weight loss. In fact, insulin is used to regulate blood sugar levels and manage weight gain in people with diabetes. Therefore, insulin is the only drug on this list that is NOT known to cause weight loss.
