Clinical trials for GLP-1 medications have shown average weight loss of 15-20% over 12-16 months. However, individual results vary significantly based on multiple factors including consistency with medication use, dietary changes, physical activity levels, and genetic factors.

Common side effects of GLP-1 medications include nausea, constipation, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort, especially when starting treatment. Most side effects tend to improve over time as your body adjusts to the medication. Your provider will discuss potential side effects and monitoring recommendations during your consultation.

Current medical evidence suggests that weight management medications work best when used long-term, similar to medications for chronic conditions like high blood pressure. When patients stop taking GLP-1 medications, weight regain is common. Your provider will discuss the appropriate duration of treatment based on your goals and medical needs.
