Thinking Outside the Box for Obesity Medication Treatment (pb)

With limited options and cost limitations for prescribing anti-obesity medications, experienced obesity medicine specialists recognize the importance of off-label use of medication for obesity treatment. This session will briefly review medications that are known to aid in weight loss but lack FDA approval for use in obesity treatment. The session will also include discussion of long-term use of medications that are only approved by the FDA for short-term use. The program will include an interactive discussion of a number of patient scenarios where alternative medications can be considered for obesity treatment.
