Every weight loss drug thus far has turned out to kill you, make you shit out your own colon, or some other damn thing. No surprise here.

A couple of weeks ago I saw a doctor saying "these drugs are the only way we have to treat the obesity epidemic."

Once they start saying stupid shit like this then you know bad things are about to go down.

But I thought it was a effective drug

It is but somehow it makes insulin go up while you are using it so if you come off it you end up in a worse state than you were to start with.

Losing weight isn't hard, it's keeping it off which is the problem. The weightloss industry has a golden goose in constantly pretending weightloss is the issue, they aren't going to hype a drug which kills that duck dead.

I guessed the appetite reducing effects was going to make people skinny by reducing food intake then people can just stop taking it maybe after reaching 0.5 mg.

I advised my mum to not go beyond 0.25 mg as a precaution
