It's important to note that weight loss medications are typically recommended for individuals who have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with other health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. These medications work in various ways, such as reducing appetite, blocking fat absorption, or increasing feelings of fullness. However, they may have potential side effects and are typically recommended as part of a comprehensive weight loss plan that includes diet and exercise. It's important to take these medications only under the guidance of a healthcare provider.
