Who can take weight-loss drugs?
Any adult who haven't been able to lose weight through diet and exercise alone whose:
• Body mass index (BMI) is greater than 30 (or 27). This means you're living with a condition that involves having too much body fat, called obesity.
• BMI is greater than 27. You also have a serious medical problem linked to obesity or overweight, such as diabetes, high cholesterol or high blood pressure.
Before choosing a medicine for you, we will complete a thorough assessment about your history and health challenges and discuss the pros and cons of prescription weight-loss drugs.
These drugs aren't for everyone. For example, you shouldn't take prescription weight-loss drugs if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or you are suffering with type 1 diabetes and etc.
How well do weight-loss drugs work?
Weight-loss drugs can lead to major weight loss compared with inactive ingredients that doesn't use medicine, called a placebo. The combination of weight-loss medicine and lifestyle changes leads to greater weight loss than do lifestyle changes alone.
Taking these drugs for a year can mean a loss of total body weight of 3% to 12% more than that lost with lifestyle changes alone. That may not seem like a lot. But losing 10% to 20% of your total weight and keeping it off can have important health benefits. For example, it can lower blood pressure, blood sugar levels and levels of fats in the blood called triglycerides.
What you should know about weight-loss drugs
Mild side effects, such as nausea, constipation and diarrhoea, are common. They may lessen over time. Rarely, serious side effects can happen. That's why it's important to use UKWeightloss health care provider to support your treatment choices and provide wrap around care / advice when needed.
Treatment prices
Weight-loss drugs can be expensive and usually between £150-£270 per month, and needs to be paid for privately.
It is extremely important to think about your long term goal and payment before you commence on the medical assisted weight loss journey. Many people gain back some of the weight they lost when they stop taking weight-loss drugs. But practicing healthy lifestyle habits may help limit weight gain.
How long do I take a weight-loss drug?
How long you take a weight-loss drug depends on whether the drug helps you lose weight. If you've lost enough weight to improve your health and you haven't had serious side effects, we may suggest that you take the drug long term.
If you haven't lost at least 5% of your body weight after taking the full dose of a drug for 3 to 6 months, we will probably change your treatment and switch you to a different weight-loss drug which may be better suited for you. These medications have effect on 95% of the population.
