Most prescription weight loss pills are considered
appetite suppressants. Appetite suppressants are used in the short-term
treatment of obesity. Their appetite-reducing effect tends to decrease
after a few weeks. Because of this, these medicines are useful only
during the first few weeks of a weight-loss program.
To have an overall successful weight loss campaign
you will need to rely on a sensible diet and getting some exercise rather
on seeking out appetite suppressants as some sort of magical pill. Changes
in eating habits and activity level must be developed and continued
long-term in order for you to continue losing weight and to keep the
lost weight from returning. These medicines are available only with
your doctor's prescription.
In deciding to use an appetite suppressant,
the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it
may do. This is a decision you and your doctor will have to make.
