Anti-obesity drugs are medications that are used to help people lose weight. These drugs work by reducing appetite, increasing the feeling of fullness after eating, or by interfering with the body's absorption of fat. Anti-obesity drugs are typically prescribed to people who are obese or overweight and have not been able to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. Some common anti-obesity drugs include orlistat, phentermine, and lorcaserin. Like all medications, anti-obesity drugs can have side effects, and they are not suitable for everyone.
