Medication Weight Loss Program

In this program, we add FDA approved medications to aid in the patient's weight reduction goals. These weight loss medications are classified as either appetite suppressants or absorption blockers. They may be a safe and successful tool as adjunct therapy along with one of our dietary plans, which incorporates nutrition, behavior changes and exercise. Clinical studies show that the use of such agents in combination with a supervised nutritional plan leads to significantly more weight loss than either diet or medication alone. It is important to understand that appetite suppressants alone will not lead to sustained weight loss.
