What are FDA-Approved Appetite Suppressants?

FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved medications for weight loss work by controlling appetite. They are in the family of drugs called: sympathomimetic amine anoretics. This means they work on the brain to help suppress appetite. “They have a stimulant effect on the hypothalamic and limbic regions, which control satiety.” Don’t worry, this process will be explained in your visit if you have questions regarding the mechanism of action of appetite suppressants!

Phentermine For Weight Loss
Phentermine is the most commonly used appetite suppressant. It is a medication that increases metabolism and reduces hunger. The Phentermine diet pill stimulates the hypothalamus gland and affects certain neurotransmitters to decrease appetite.
Phendimetrazine For Weight Loss
Phendimetrazine is a more potent medication that reduces appetite and increases metabolism. It works by stimulating the central nervous system to increase heart rate and blood pressure while decreasing appetite. Conclusion Appetite suppressants can be a useful adjunct to surgery in the long-term management of obesity. When patients fail to lose the expected amount of weight, or start regaining weight, assessing for uncontrolled hunger is essential. Our Medical staff will do a thorough assessment of past medical history and will direct the proper choice of appetite suppressants. All FDA Approved appetite suppressants work best in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program.
Diethylpropion For Weight Loss
Diethylpropion, has a shorter half-life than phentermine and, therefore, can be used later in the day with less effect on sleep. Available in regular and extended-release tablets. This program is designed for the patient that wants to try their own self-managed diet, with the help of one of our prescription weight loss medications as well as a monthly B12 injection. Our providers work with you to find the best prescription for you and you will refill monthly at your own pace.
Phentermine/Topiramate for Weight Loss

Phentermine/Topiramate combines the FDA appetite suppressant phentermine with topiramate to offer patients long term appetite control. Phentermine reduces hunger by stimulating the hypothalamus to release neurotransmitters. Topiramate is generic for Topamax. Topiramate has a variety of uses including migraine management and as an anticonvulsant. When topiramate is combined with phentermine, appetite control can be extended throughout the day and offer patients better satiety to decrease their calorie intake.

Metformin for Weight Loss
If an individual has insulin resistance, the sugar from the carbohydrates consumed are not utilized for cell energy and will store as body fat. Metformin aids with regulation of blood sugar and improvement of insulin utilization. Therefore, metformin will help leave less sugar and insulin around in the body to aid with weight loss.

Are Weight Loss Medications a Good Fit for Me?

You may ask yourself the question: Am I right for appetite suppressants? Our team is qualified to guide you to the correct medication based on weight loss goals, health conditions, and medical history. With any medication there are side effects and contraindications, so not everyone can qualify for our medications. However, we have a team of Provider’s in our clinic who will review your medical history and perform a physical exam prior to dispensing the medication. Your safety and happiness is our mission! At your visit you will receive a thorough overview of our medications and leave feeling confident with your treatment regimen.

Final Thoughts: Taking our medications alone will not yield weight loss, there must be unification of behavioral modification, exercise, and caloric restriction to achieve success. With less appetite, reaching your goals is realistic and it makes the entire process more enjoyable. Options Medical Weight Loss offers comprehensive programs (in addition to medication) to take your weight loss to the next level!

"I can't be more pleased with the success I've had with Options Medical Weight Loss. My coach is Miranda, and her support has made all the difference for me to stay motivated. She helped me make this program work in my real life too, after the program ends. I gained nearly 30lbs during Covid, and I've lost all of it. I feel better too because I've lost over 25lbs of fat, and minimal muscle loss. I am so grateful to Miranda and the entire staff, they're so friendly. I actually enjoy going in every week. Thank you!!"

"Amazing program. So glad that I signed up. I'm down almost 70 pounds in 4 months. Great people and my counselor Matt is excellent. Follow the program and make changes as they are recommended to you. I've had a down week here or there where I didn't lose as much as I had expected only to come back the next having lost twice as much as I expected. Again, really great program and on track to get to my goal weight. Thanks so much Matt and all the staff at Options Gahanna."
