Course Description:
Obesity is a complex, chronic medical condition that requires a multifaceted approach to treatment. This session will explore the classification systems used to assess obesity and identify patients who may benefit from GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy. Attendees will gain insight into alternative therapeutic options for individuals for whom GLP-1 receptor agonists are not appropriate, tolerated, accepted, or are contraindicated. The session will also highlight evidence-based behavioral and lifestyle interventions that complement pharmacotherapy, ensuring a holistic approach to weight management. Participants will leave with practical strategies to support patients on their weight loss journey in the context of emerging pharmacologic treatments.
