Medically managed weight loss programs offer a structured approach to losing weight, using FDA-approved medications and personalized dietary and lifestyle adjustments. Here’s how to determine if you’re a candidate.
What Is Medically Managed Weight Loss?
This comprehensive approach combines medical oversight, behavior modification, and possibly prescription medication to achieve significant weight loss. Ideal for those who struggle with obesity or weight-related health issues.
Are You a Candidate?
Assessing Your BMI & Health Conditions
Candidates typically have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with weight-related conditions such as hypertension or type 2 diabetes. These thresholds indicate that traditional methods like diet and exercise alone may not be sufficient.
Evaluating Medical History & Current Health
A thorough medical assessment is crucial. This includes reviewing your medical history, current medications, and any contraindications that might affect your eligibility for certain weight loss medications.
