I am a 15-year-old adolescent who is obese. I am often ridiculed for my weight, and I am concerned about my health. I would like to know how to control my weight. Is it useful to take the weight loss drug Orlistat?
Orlistat is a weight loss drug that has been shown to be effective in adults and adolescents. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before taking any weight loss medication, especially if you are an adolescent.
In addition to medication, there are a number of other things you can do to control your weight, such as:
- Eating a healthy diet that is low in calories and fat
- Getting regular exercise
- Getting enough sleep
If you are concerned about your weight, I encourage you to talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian. They can help you develop a healthy weight loss plan that is right for you.
