ALWAYS BEEN A BIG DRAW. MANY
SEEING IT AS A MAGIC PILL. BUT
THERE’S ONE TREND THAT HAS
HEALTH EXPERTS ISSUING SOME
CAUTION. BRIDGET IS NOW
STANDING BY TO ASK A DOCTOR.

BY CONVIVA PRIMARY CARE

BECOME THE SUBJECT OF
CONTROVERSY SINCE TALK ABOUT

HEALTHY WEIGHT LOSS. DOCTOR,
MOHAMAD TO WHITE FROM ORLANDO
HEALTH, WEIGHT LOSS AND
BARIATRIC SURGERY INSTITUTE.
THANKS FOR COMING IN. DOCTOR
DREW OTT, THANK YOU. SO WE
TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WAS
HIM
>> BRIDGETT: MANY PEOPLE ARE
USING THIS DRUG IN THE PAST 15
YEARS FOR DIABETES. SO WHAT
HAPPENED IN TERMS OF ITS
GROWING POPULARITY IN IN
WEIGHT USAGE?
>> WELL, WHEN THEY STARTED USE
IT FOR THAT MEAT IS THEY KNOW
THIS AND THE PATIENT ALSO
WEIGHT. AND THEY LOSE. AND THE
THIS AND THE PATIENT ALSO
WEIGHT. AND THEY LOSE. AND THE Aspen Dental ABOUT 10 PERCENT OF THEIR BODY
WEIGHT. WHICH IS CAMPAIGNING
TOOL, YOU KNOW, NIGHT AN
EXERCISE, WHICH IS GIVE YOU
ONLY ABOUT 3% OF WEIGHT LOSS.
THAT’S ON. THIS IS, YOU KNOW,
FOR THE PEOPLE TO LOSE WEIGHT
AND THEN. THEY TRIED THE
PEOPLE WITHOUT AND THEY FOUND
THAT THE STUDY SHOWED THAT
PATIENTS WITH. THAT WE ON THE
EAST MEDICATION AND ABLE TO
LOSE ABOUT 10 TO 15% OF THEIR
BODY WEIGHT.
>> BRIDGETT: AND SO WHAT’S
HAPPENING NOW WITH THAT HAS
THAT IMPACTED THE AVAILABILITY
FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED IT? 4?
>> YOU KNOW, DIABETES, WHICH
IS LIFE-THREATENING THING IN
DID TO SOME EXTENT BECAUSE
SOMETIMES YOU MIGHT NOT FIND
ON THOSE AND MAKE IT AVAILABLE
FOR PATIENTS. BUT I THINK THE
COMPANY HAS CHANGED SOME OF
THAT AND TRY TO BE ABLE TO BE
USED FOR. WEIGHT LOSS AND
CHANGE THE NAME THE MEDICATION
TO IT BE. SO WE IS ANOTHER
MEDICATION THAT’S YOU KNOW,
BEING PUT. WITH LOSS. AND IT
DOES.
>> BRIDGETT: AN FDA SO ONE OF
THE RISK INVOLVED WITH THAT,
LIKE IF WE WANTED TO EXPLORE
THE OPTION OF A DRUG TO HELP
WITH WEIGHT LOSS, ARE THE
RISKS INVOLVED WITH THAT IN
THE LONG TERM?
>> INVOLVED WITH MEDICATIONS,
INCLUDING BANK OF THE TIGRIS,
WHICH IS CAN CAUSE
INFLAMMATION OF THE BANK.
ALSO, I MIGHT AFFECT THE GOAL
WOULD PATIENTLY AND DEVELOP GO
STONES. AND HAVE KNOWN TO
SOMETIMES ALSO INCREASED
DEPRESSION, ESPECIALLY WITH
THE PEOPLE THAT HAS THE
BRITISH AND BECOME LAW. I DO.
RISK AND BALL AND LEADING YOU
KNOW, AND THEY HAVE. LOCATION.
THEY MIGHT HAVE ASSOCIATE WITH
THAT. ALSO THIS MEDICATION
SHOULD NOT BE USED ANY PATIENT
THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO
CANCER.
>> BRIDGETT: AND SO WHAT DO
YOU TELL PATIENTS IN THEIR
WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEYS WHEN IT
COMES TO FIGURING OUT WHAT’S
RIGHT FOR THEM, WHICH OPTIONS?
WHAT WOULD FIT BEST FOR THEM?
>> WELL, YOU KNOW DOES DOES.
PINING FOR CLASSES. YOU KNOW,
PEOPLE WHEN THE BMI MORE THAN
25 TO 20 AND THAT’S A CLASS.
ONE LESS TOOL. 28 TO SAY LAST
FEED UP TO SAY 5, 9, THAT’S
OVER 40 PM SO EACH ONE AS THE
FRONT. MANAGEMENT. MANAGEMENT
IS THAT FOR THE CLASS ONE AND
CLASS TO WHICH IS BASICALLY
BEFORE, YOU KNOW, THE PATIENT
TO GET TO THAT. BMI OF 35
POINTS AND GET TO BMI OF 35 IS
MANY DIFFICULT WITH ANY KIND
OF MEDICINE TO MAKE THEM LOSE
WEIGHT AND 10 IT OFF. THEY CAN
LOSE WEIGHT, BUT THEY CANNOT
MAINTAIN IT.
>> AND THAT’S WHAT SOME PEOPLE
HAVE TESTIFIED TO USING DRUGS
LIKE THIS. BUT THEN ONCE THEY
COME OFF OF IT, EVEN MORE
WEIGHT IS GAIN. IS THAT COMMON
IN THIS CALM? AND BECAUSE
>> IF YOU WANT TO TAKE THOSE
MEDICATIONS SO MAKE A LITTLE
TIME. AND MEDICATION IS GOING
TO SOME PRESS. YOU HAVE A
TIGHT THOSE MEDICATION, YOU
KNOW, AT THE TIME IS BACK. YOU
KNOW, YOU START AND YOU GAIN
THE WEIGHT BACK AGAIN. MOST
IMPORTANT THING ABOUT LOSS IS
FIRST GALLERY. HOW MUCH YOU
KNOW YOU CAN CONSUME PICKUP
ALRIGHT, FOOD THAT, YOU
HEALTHY. AND ALSO, YOU KNOW,
YOUR ACTIVITY BECAUSE THE
ACTIVITY IS IMPORTANT TO BE
ABLE TO THEN MORE. YOU KNOW,
WE HAVE NO, THEY’RE SAYING CAN
BURN CALORIE HIS SIZE. THE
MORE YOU KNOW, A YOU’VE BEEN A
LOT OF BUT THAT MIGHT NOT.
EVEN COME TO THAT LEVEL. WHAT
ARE YOU CONSUMING IF YOU 2008
1000 KENNEDY? SO WAS THAT
SOMEBODY WAY 130 POUNDS, THAT
KIND OF EXPENDITURES BY 1300
KIND OF. SO IF IT’S 1500
COUNTY IN LATE FEE, A 2000 ANY
YOU WAIT. SO YOU HAVE TO BELOW
THAT. YOU KNOW AND YOU CANNOT
GET TO 1500 QAEDA IN HIS OWN
ACTIVITY. SO IT WOULD BE ABLE
TO TEACH THAT.
>> WHAT I HEAR DOCTORS AS
ALWAYS, IT’S JUST NOT IT’S NOT
A ONE PILL FIXES A
MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH
INVOLVING.
>> WORKING WITH DOCTORS AND
SPECIALISTS. EVEN IS NOT. ONE
TO USE BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, IF
YOU DON’T CONTINUE DOING THE
RIGHT THING AND RIGHT. BUT
RIGHT, EXERCISE THAT CAN
