Appetite suppressants are medications that are used to reduce feelings of hunger and help people eat less. They work by affecting the brain's appetite-regulating centers, reducing the desire to eat or increasing feelings of fullness after eating. Appetite suppressants are typically prescribed for people who are obese or overweight and have not been able to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. They can have side effects and are not suitable for everyone.
