The newest prescription medications, such as Zepbound, Wegovy, and Saxenda, are available as subcutaneous (below the skin) injections and are authorized for long-term, chronic weight loss. With these more recent treatments, weight reduction of up to 20% has been reported. However, digestive tract issues are frequent and can cause some patients to discontinue their medication.

For chronic, long-term weight loss, prescription weight loss medications including phentermine and topiramate (Qsymia), bupropion, and naltrexone (Contrave) are utilized, but only if sufficient results are obtained. Long-term treatment is usually discontinued after 12 to 16 weeks if a 3% to 4% weight loss has not been attained.
