The most successful weight loss medications are generally classified as appetite suppressants. They can be stimulants or non-stimulants. Both types of medications can be useful in different situations to aid weight loss efforts. Medication can be used in combination with or without our other programs to evoke a feeling of fullness. This medication-only program is designed to work in combination with traditional food choices rather than with the full or partial meal replacement programs.
An appetite suppressant is designed to reduce your feelings of hunger by making you feel full sooner. Unlike the constant hunger or starvation you may feel on a normal diet, when you are taking appetite suppressants, you simply aren't as hungry.
On their own, weight loss medications have a very modest and usually temporary effect. When used irresponsibly and without medical monitoring, they can also have dangerous, unpleasant and poor results. Their advantages can be safely maximized, however, when they are used as part of a comprehensive weight loss treatment plan that involves diet, exercise, and behavior modification.
