Description
Prescribing weight loss medications in primary care is SUCH a common challenge for new nurse practitioners. It feels like there are so many options and things to keep track of.This week’s episode is a follow up from the last episode about weight management counseling-- all about weight loss medications in primary care. This week I cover:✅ Which patients are candidates for weight loss medication✅ The three main types of medications, side effects to watch out for✅ Goal setting and what to expect with patients✅ Monitoring of patients and how often to have them come back to clinic PS. I said most of the studies are heterogeneous but I meant to say that the studies are too homogeneous-- they’re not reflective of the diverse communities of patients we serve.
