In this episode, we’re entering the era of drug therapy for weight loss—though these treatments have been available for over 50 years. Many doctors have been hesitant to use them, and societal bias has contributed to that reluctance. We’ll discuss the different drug treatment options available today, examine the long-term risks associated with them, and provide guidance on managing medications after reaching your target weight. This episode will expand your understanding of how pharmacology can play a role in sustainable weight loss.
