Recent advances in Antiobesity drugs The document summarizes recent developments in anti-obesity drug treatments. It discusses drugs that have been approved or withdrawn due to safety concerns. Approved drugs like liraglutide, semaglutide and orlistat provide weight loss and health benefits but also have limitations. New drugs under investigation aim to modify metabolism instead of hunger/satiety and may offer more effective and safer treatment options. However, most new drugs also require injection administration or have shown low weight loss in clinical trials so far.
