PBMD Weight Loss program is devised and implemented by board certified physicians, who monitor your progress and adjust the program based on your health profile and laboratory analysis.
The goal of medical weight loss is to make the brain happy with less calories. PBMD Weight Loss uses a low dose combination of medications that decrease your appetite and make you feel full. There are eight medications currently available that have been proven to work with weight loss. The reason PBMD Weight Loss get results far exceeding those seen at other weight loss centers is that we tailor the program to each individual patient.
Once you achieve your weigh goal, we taper the medications to the lowest effective dose. Some patients are able to control their weight without medications, however there is a quarterly follow up program for those who continue to need some medical assistance.
Several medications are used in the PBMD Weight Loss program, along with a healthy diet, exercise and nutritional supplements. The medications work together to control appetite. Taking multi-vitamins and supplements during the weight loss program is extremely important and helps maintain a healthy nutritional balance.
Additional instructions and information, on how to take the medications, how to avoid side effects, diet and exercise instructions, and which vitamins and supplements to take will be given to you at your first visit at PBMD Weight Loss.
Most of the side effects are dose related and are not serious. Some side effects can be lessened by starting at low doses and gradually increasing the dose.
The results vary based on each individuals metabolic profile, initial weight and other factors. Study results show an average body weight loss over a 3 month time period to be 13.36 %, with average body fat loss of 25.54% over the same 3 month period.
