Management of Obesity: Review of Adjunctive Therapies and Clinical Management Pearls

Listen to this summary

The authors aim to review the current landscape of obesity management, including new and emerging therapies, while addressing the challenges that hinder effective treatment in the US. They highlight the role of gastroenterologists in obesity care, given their expertise in gut-related therapies, and provide insights into clinical management strategies for various obesity treatments. Despite advancements, the persistent rate of obesity suggests that factors such as cost, insurance coverage, and provider availability continue to impede effective care.
