[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2365177, member: 41816"] I find it interesting that the drug has been NICE approved in the UK to treat obesity of over 35 BMI, but is available for £250 privately for those under that BMI Also, the article author is hypothyroid and found it worked well. Since hypothyroidism (and PCOS) slow the metabolism, the body uses less food to do more, and many sufferers are already eating small amounts and not seeing weight loss. There must be many in the same situation who would grab this treatment with both hands. Yet to eat even less, with less appetite, may have long term consequences for nutrition and overall health. I hope someone in NICE recognises this and sees the need for education on nutrition alongside a drug that reduces appetite in this way. [/QUOTE]
