We can prescribe medication for weight loss.
There are several prescription medications available for weight loss, including Duromine, Contrave, Ozempic, and Saxenda. These medications work by suppressing appetite, increasing fullness, or improving metabolism to promote weight loss.
It's important to note that while these medications can be effective in promoting weight loss, they should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise. Additionally, prescription weight loss medications are only recommended for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or greater for individuals who have weight-related health problems.
It's crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new weight loss medication. They can evaluate your individual needs and determine if a prescription weight loss medication is appropriate for you, as well as monitor your progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
