Clinical trials have shown that weight loss medications can be highly effective for promoting weight loss. In a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers found that patients treated with a once-weekly weight loss medication lost an average of 15% of their initial body weight over 68 weeks of treatment. Weight loss medications should always be used alongside lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, to achieve the best outcome.
