The latest one

[Gina]

Does anyone know what the newest prescription weight loss drug is? Also, in what year was it launched.

Um...I guess Belviq, Saxenda and Qysmia are the latest ones. They were all introduced in the 2000's...

I was thinking these ones, too. I can't think of anything else. Actually, sorry, I just re-read your list of drugs. What is Saxenda? I've never heard of that one before. Is that a new pill like phentermine or something?

I don't think Saxenda is a diet pill. It is for the treatment of obesity but I think it's an injection.

It is an an injection. I think that the latest pills are Belviq and Qsmyia.

I agree, I believe the newest ones are Belviq, Qysmia, and Saxenda. They haven't launched anything new within the past couple of years...but I imagine there will be another one out before the end of the decade that uses similar ingredients or combines phentermine with something...

Does it matter? They all kinda don't work anyway...I mean have you seen the studies? It's always something lame like, it cause a person to lose 12 pounds over the course of a year....12 pounds in a year??? That's so pathetic! Considering the side effects these drugs have, is it really worth it?
