Decatur, United States - February 28, 2021 /PressCable/ —

An article covering the subject of weight loss medications entitled ‘When are Weight Loss Medications Appropriate?’ has now been released and published by My Bariatric Solutions, an authority on bariatric surgery and weight loss in general. The article brings to light necessary information for anyone wanting to lose weight.

The complete article can be found at https://mybariatricsolutions.com/blogs

Perhaps one of the most relevant pieces of information for those considering diet medications, is that the medicines are generally aimed at individuals with a BMI of at least 30 or a BMI as low as 27 with weight related medical issues, and generally work best for individuals needing to lose 50lbs or less.

While those looking for a loss greater than 50lbs may lose weight using diet medications, it is less realistic they will be able to lose to a healthy BMI of 25 or lower. Medications combined with lifestyle and exercise changes generally result in a loss between 3-10% of starting body weight.

The majority of weight loss medications are taken on a daily basis and are intended for short term use, but time may be extended depending upon the individual success. Additionally, some diet medications can be quite expensive and may not be covered by insurance. Also, some diet medications can exacerbate certain medical conditions.

With the article, Drs. Heath Smith and Arsalla Islam want make sure that people who are thinking about using diet medications to help with their weigh loss goals have the information they need to make an informed decision on the appropriateness of the medicine for their needs.

On the My Bariatric Solutions website, the doctors emphasize that,

‘Diet medications aren’t magic and don’t work alone. Changes in eating and exercise habits are necessary for the individual to have and sustain successful weight loss.’

For those wanting to reduce their weight and who the medicine is right for, weight loss medications are just one step of the process. Changes in eating and exercise habits are necessary for sustained and successful weight loss. The goal is to change unhealthy eating and exercise habits to healthy ones while on the medication, and to maintain those changes once the medication is discontinued.
