Key points

  • Weight management is a long-term process that can call for different levels of support over time.
  • Clinical assessment looks at weight-related health conditions and other factors that can affect weight.
  • Medicine belongs within a broader, reviewed weight-management plan rather than working on its own.

Weight management, diabetes and respiratory medicines

Mysimba combines naltrexone with bupropion and is listed for chronic weight management. Xenical contains orlistat and is listed for obesity management. These are the two medicines in this collection with a weight-management listing.

Rybelsus contains Semaglutide and Victoza contains liraglutide, and both are listed for type 2 diabetes mellitus only. They sit in this collection without a weight-management listing of their own.

Clenbuterol Tablets contain Clenbuterol and are listed for Bronchospasm, asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. They appear here for that indication, not for weight management.
