<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The AR states what it does, but there are always exceptions to any rule. Your Doctor can make you medically exempt from Height and weight standards. While mostly done for thyroid conditions, I have seen it done for weight causing anti-depressants. The effective date should be the day you started the medication. Go back to the prescribing doctor and ask for the exemption.
