The role of medication is to assist individuals who are having difficulty with hunger, cravings and compulsive eating. Diet drugs, even then strongest, are not "magic bullets," only "helpers", and that even the strongest pill cannot stop one from eating some very bad, readily available foods.
Dr Lipman Reviews Role of Prescription Drugs and Weight Loss
Some individuals experience fullness for the first time in their lives while others feel in control of their food and learn to make better food decisions. Many overweight people learn that they genuinely do not need as much food as they had once believed they did. While some individuals might do well taking the drugs for only a couple of weeks to help "jump start" their weight loss plan, others may need to take them for months or even years. Since each overweight individual has a different reason for his weight gain, the right drug needs to be matched with the "right person"-not only in choice of drugs, but dose and duration.
How Diet Pills Work, How They Can Help You, What Are the Side Effects:
Phentermine, Phendimetrazine and Diethylpropion:
These are closely related drugs that reduce appetite but have little effect on cravings and compulsive eating. They raise blood pressure in some individuals and often are limited by the development of tolerance in others. These raise
blood pressure in a few individuals, but not in those whose blood pressures are well controlled. They can be used for diabetics as well. These are useful drugs for those who simply eat too much, particularly during the day when these drugs are the most effective.They need to be used with caution in people with high blood pressure. They should not be used either in people who have heart disease, who have had strokes, or other serious brain or cardiac problems. These drugs are most effective when used in low doses and titrated slowly to avoid side effects and the development of tolerance. Often Dr Lipman alternates Phentermine with Phendimetrazine in order to avoid tolerance. Of all of the drugs in this group, Diethylpropion has the least side effects and the least problems with tolerance. Related to bupropion, Wellbutrin, not only reduces appetite but helps many people with compulsive eating.
Orlistat:
Approved by the U.S. FDA in 1999, Xenical (orlistat) is a lipase inhibitor for obesity management that acts by inhibiting the absorption of dietary fats. Orilstat prevents enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract from breaking down dietary fats into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body. This undigested fat is excreted in the bowel movement. Side effects of flatulence, fecal urgency, oily stools and leakage have limited its widespread use. An over-the-counter version, brand name Alli has been on the market for the past two years,
