Management of excess weight or obesity by drugs almost always requires patients to combine medication with lifestyle changes. To further alleviate your overweight condition, some prescription weight loss medications may be suggested according to your medical history, weight background, physical activity, food intake patterns, and diet. Some prescription medications to treat obesity have been shown to reduce appetite and cause a sensation of satiety. Others affect the lipids derived from food digestion or improve glucose tolerance. Our specialists can assess the reasons for obesity and recommend available FN approved bariatric medications, both injectable and oral tablets, according to the BMI and target health parameters of the patient. Usually, 10 percent of the body weight may be lost in 6 months of using prescribed anti-obesity drugs.
