E87 Obesity Medicine: Medication: Other Medications

Today we will finish up on medications used for weight loss prior to going in to the GLP-1 medications. I will be discussing several medications today. These are medications that you will use less often, but most of them have important roles to play with some patients, so it's important to have them in your arsenal to personalize care. I'll discuss metformin (Glucophage), topiramate (Topamax), orlistat (Xenical), pramlintide (Symlin), Lorcaserin (Belviq), Gelesis100 (Plenity), Setmelanotide (Imcivree), and SGLT2 inhibitors.
