Description

Join Dr. Colleen Tewksbury for a deep dive into counseling patients regarding nutrition surrounding the use of obesity medications (OMs). OMs can affect energy intake, and a balanced diet should be promoted in conjunction with an OM to optimize weight and health outcomes.¹ Dr. Colleen Tewksbury will discuss creating an individualized approach to diet and nutrition for each patient in order to optimize weight management, from pre-OM use through OM initiation and titration and extending into the weight management period.
