Patient Safety Org Says it is Time to Review New Evidence for FDA-Approved Weight Loss Drugs

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, January 10, 2023

PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Jan. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- With rates of obesity and diabetes at record highs, the nation's largest nonprofit patient safety organization is calling on healthcare leaders to change their approach and fully embrace FDA-approved weight-loss drugs. A report from independent nonprofit ECRI outlines a series of myths about weight-loss medication—such as their perceived inconsequence for losing weight and long-term ineffectiveness for keeping it off—that have led to them being dramatically underused. A large body of evidence shows that these drugs are beneficial as an adjunct to diet, exercise, and counseling and should be considered for first-line treatment in many patients, says ECRI.

Key Points: 
  • "Obesity is epidemic and we need comprehensive evidence-based solutions," says Marcus Schabacker, MD, PhD, president and chief executive officer of ECRI.
  • "Millions of people in America resolve to live healthier lives in 2023, possibly including weight loss among their goals," says Schabacker.
  • "Physicians must set aside the misinformation about weight-loss drugs, and personal biases about whether and how people can recover from obesity.
  • NOTE: ECRI received no funding from manufacturers of weight-loss drugs in preparing this independent research assessment.
