What weight loss medications are best for me?
When working with a doctor to achieve medical weight loss, you may be advised to take certain medications. The weight loss medicine recommended by our team is sometimes recommended as an extra step in helping guide the loss of fat while ensuring satiety. These medications can also work in delaying the emptying of the stomach to ensure you feel fuller for longer. This makes a significant difference in patients who struggle with weight loss due to constantly feeling hungry, even after meals and snacks.
Can medical weight loss medications be combined with other weight loss techniques?
For dramatic results, especially in patients with a hundred or more pounds to lose, our team may recommend pairing medical weight loss medicines and techniques with other methods, such as the Orbera® gastric balloon or endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty.
