Frequently Asked Questions
The duration of medication use varies among individuals. Some may use it throughout the program and then stop, while others might need it for 6 months or more to sustain results while adopting new habits. A few may require long-term use. Individual monitoring is key, and the decision to discontinue is based on observation and the prevention of rapid weight gain upon cessation.
As an obesity care team, we provide a variety of tools, with medication being just one option. You can choose to work with our team members without including medication in your plan.
