You’ll continue increasing your dose every four weeks until you reach your maintenance dose. Your maintenance dose refers to the dose that provides the best results while keeping side effects manageable. This may be the maximum recommended dose for your treatment, or a lower dose that achieves the best balance between effectiveness and minimal side effects.
At MedExpress, achieving a healthy weight is just the beginning of your weight loss journey. Maintaining your success is equally important.
We understand you might feel anxious at the thought of stopping weight loss medications once you reach a healthy BMI. The good news is that reaching your goal isn’t the end of your journey; it’s the beginning of maintaining your progress.
That’s why we continue to support you, even after you've achieved your goals. Rather than stopping medication automatically, our prescribers can continue to provide your weight loss treatment for as long as you need to prevent weight regain - as long as your BMI remains above 23.5 and you remain eligible for treatment.
We conduct regular check-ins to monitor your progress, adjust your treatment if necessary, and address any concerns you may have. This means you can feel confident in maintaining the results you have worked hard to achieve.
