Common Weight Loss Treatments and Supplements
Weight loss can be difficult, especially when you are facing medical conditions such as thyroid
dysfunction or hormone imbalance that render you unable to lose weight from diet and exercise
alone. Weight loss treatments can be used in these cases to help facilitate weight loss in a way
that works with your body and your existing medical conditions. Medications can help encourage
weight loss despite the conditions that caused you to gain weight in the first place.
If you’ve learned you have a specific issue, weight loss treatments may be your next step.
Consider that some of these common weight loss treatments, depending on your current weight,
other health conditions, and hormone levels may be the right fit for your health journey
- Injectable medication – Often used to treat type 2 diabetes, GLP-1 is an injectable medication that promotes insulin creation in the body, working as an appetite suppressant and digestion aid that causes weight loss. These regimens are usually reserved for those facing chronic obesity as well as those looking for simple weight loss.
- Metformin – Similar to the GLP-1 medication, metformin is also typically given to patients with PCOS, pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes but can be used for weight loss. Metformin helps control blood sugar spikes by making the body more reactive to insulin, regulating blood sugar levels.
- Bupropion/Naltrexone – Used on-label to combat depression, bupropion can also help balance levels of norepinephrine and dopamine, which can lead to overeating when unbalanced. For smokers, bupropion is often used to help reduce cravings, and when coupled with naltrexone, these two compounds can help patients lose weight.
- Phentermine/Topiramate – Both phentermine and topiramate work to help suppress appetite while extending feelings of being full, allowing users to avoid overeating or eating when not hungry. This medication can be dosed in multiple strength levels depending on the needs of the patient.
