Will I gain weight when I stop the medication?

You may regain some of the weight you lost while taking the medication.

This is because the medication will no longer help control your appetite. This is why the Compound programme places a major focus on supporting you in developing healthy habits around nutrition and exercise, which will help you maintain your weight loss over a long period.

Before stopping the medication, you can discuss with your prescriber whether it is appropriate for you to remain on a lower maintenance dose to allow your appetite to stabilise more gradually.
