Drug treatment only temporarily reduces appetite
Limited medical follow-up
Dose-focused clinical monitoring, without comprehensive support
Lack of behavioural guidelines
The patient's habits and lifestyle are not restructured
Higher risk of weight regain
High probability of regaining weight upon discontinuing the medication
Personalised medical assessment
Comprehensive medical analysis of your health and clinical history
Multidisciplinary care
Food consultancy and specialised psychological monitoring
Surgery when appropriate
For selected cases as part of a tailored plan
