All drugs prescribed by ARCD are medications approved by the FDA for short and long-term use and are oftentimes used as an adjunct to diet and physical activity. Patients that qualify according to specific guidelines can receive pharmacological treatment and will be managed by the clinician.

Our medical management process also consists of an evaluation of medication that a patient may be currently taking to see if these medications may be contributing to weight gain and when possible reducing or discontinuing or providing an alternative.
