“Are there any medications for obesity?”

Absolutely. Believe it or not, we have not found any medications as safe, affordable or as effective as what came out over 50 years ago. Those patients that I have who required medications to assist them have done tremendously well with them along with healthy eating (more protein and less carbs) along with improved activity levels. I recommend finding a good bariatrician near you who can help with your specific needs and determine if you are a candidate for medication assisted help with your journey. There are some newer medications available, but I have found them to be very expensive and they have not been used long enough to determine their safety profile.
