Why Medical Weight Loss Matters
Losing weight is about so much more than just looking better. Excess weight puts you at higher risk for obesity-related conditions like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, sleep apnea, and joint problems. Even modest weight loss of 5-10% of your body weight can lead to huge health improvements.
But for many people, diet and exercise just aren’t enough. Prescription weight loss medications combined with lifestyle changes provide the most successful path to lasting results. Z Med Clinic offers a full range of FDA-approved weight loss medications to help you:
- Feel less hungry so you eat less
- Absorb fewer calories from food
- Reduce cravings and habits leading to overeating
- Boost energy and motivation for physical activity
With an individualized prescription regimen and support from our caring providers, you can finally conquer your weight loss barriers.
Understanding Your Medical Weight Loss Options
Losing weight requires a multi-pronged approach. Prescription medications are powerful tools, but not magic pills. They are meant for short-term use alongside comprehensive lifestyle changes like a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Medications help jumpstart your weight loss so you can build healthy habits that last after stopping the medication. They work by targeting the complex physiological factors that drive appetite, cravings, and metabolism.
At Z Med Clinic, our board-certified providers carefully select medications tailored to your needs based on:
- Your health history, current medications, and any conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure that could be impacted
- Your BMI and amount of weight loss needed to achieve a healthy range
- The risk of potential side effects or interactions with medications you currently take
- Your lifestyle, typical eating patterns, activity level, and struggles that contribute to excess weight
- Your personal preferences, priorities, and weight loss goals
The medications we prescribe help promote weight loss through various mechanisms such as:
- Reducing appetite and hunger cues to lower calorie intake
- Increasing feelings of fullness so you eat smaller portions
- Preventing the absorption of calories from food
- Lessening cravings and impulses that lead to overeating
- Boosting energy, mood, and motivation for physical activity
With regular follow-up visits, we’ll monitor your progress and adjust your medication regimen as needed to help you lose weight safely and effectively.

Prescription Options We Offer
Diethylpropion
Diethylpropion (Tenuate®) suppresses appetite by stimulating the release of norepinephrine, a hormone that signals your brain to feel full. It’s prescribed for short-term use in obese patients or those who are overweight with additional health issues. Along with close medical monitoring, diethylpropion is safe and effective for 12-16 weeks of use.
Bupropion
Bupropion (Wellbutrin®) is often used long-term to treat depression and aid smoking cessation. But it may also increase weight loss by improving mood and reducing cravings. Bupropion works best when prescribed specifically for weight management and combined with healthy lifestyle changes.
Contrave®
Contrave® contains two generic medications – naltrexone and bupropion. Naltrexone curbs cravings, while bupropion promotes satiety. Together, they can significantly reduce body weight when combined with diet and exercise. Contrave® also helps treat underlying behaviors contributing to overeating.
Qsymia®
Qsymia® suppresses appetite through phentermine’s effect on neurotransmitters. Topiramate enhances phentermine’s effects while promoting weight loss through other mechanisms. Qsymia provides safe, effective weight loss of 5-10% when taken daily along with lifestyle modifications.
