Lose Weight Without Syringes: Science and practice of oral weight loss products

By Christiane Richter

Injections? No thanks
This book provides a comprehensive overview of prescription oral weight loss medications - especially for people with a fear of needles or who avoid injections.
Obesity is a chronic disease with far-reaching health consequences. Modern medications have revolutionised treatment - but many of the most effective substances must be injected. But what if those affected are afraid of needles? What alternatives are available? And how effective, safe and suitable for everyday use are oral medications really?
This reference book provides well-founded answers for anyone involved in obesity treatment, either professionally or personally. It highlights medical, psychological and regulatory aspects, analyses approved oral active ingredients in detail and shows how individualised, injection-free therapy can be successful.
A practical, differentiated and evidence-based guide - for greater treatment acceptance, equitable care and quality of life.
