If your weight loss plan was created by a certified doctor who assessed your symptoms, health history, and preferences, you can be sure to get a safe strategy. Still, weight loss pills may cause side effects in any patient. You should precisely stick to the recommendations set by your doctor to avoid or reduce such adverse effects. Neither make your diet stricter without approval nor increase your activity level suddenly to prevent the development of eating disorders or physical issues.

Start With Weight Loss Assessment

Before you proceed with your treatment, you will go through one or several weight loss evaluations:

Answering a weight loss assessment questionnaire

You may be asked to fill out a weight loss assessment form. It typically covers your weight loss goals and preferences.

Reviewing your past medical history

You will be asked about allergies, medicines and supplements you take, and the details of your weight loss history. If medications are considered, you’ll be asked whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding because some weight loss meds are not suitable in such cases.

Evaluating physical health

Some medical ailments (thyroid disorder, cardiovascular disease, kidney problems, etc.) can cause weight gain. You might be recommended to take extra tests to understand if you have physical issues related to weight fluctuations.

Measuring BMI

BMI calculation is one of the standard weight loss assessment tools. It is a body mass index that is determined based on your height and weight. Its measurement helps in developing a treatment plan or recommendations.

Analyzing your diet and activity level

You will be asked about your diet, routines, and habits to help the doctor develop an effective strategy for you. Whether you get weight loss pills prescribed or not, a healthy diet and proper activity level are recommended.

Examining mental health

Stress, insomnia, and depression may cause weight gain and should be treated along with the weight loss process. Eating disorders must be ruled out too, as they require different treatments, not limited to weight loss itself.

Sudden weight loss can be a consequence of physical ailments. To identify the most probable cause, these tests can be recommended:

  • A complete blood count
  • Thyroid panel
  • Kidney and liver function tests
  • Electrolyte panel
  • Inflammation tests
  • Blood sugar test

On the other hand, weight fluctuations can also be caused by mental health problems. At MEDvidi, you can be assessed for depression, anxiety, stress, and other conditions.


You can calculate your normal weight using one of the most common weight loss diagnostic tests—BMI calculation (body mass index). Normally, a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 is considered healthy. Nevertheless, normal weight should be determined individually, considering not just one’s height but also several other factors including age, the amount of fat and muscle mass in the body, and health specifics.


For adults, BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered to indicate a normal or healthy weight. A BMI of less than 18.5 means underweight, while a BMI of 25.0 to 29.9 means overweight. A BMI of 30.0 and higher is in the obese range.

Weight loss programs held through telemedicine incorporate medical knowledge and modern technologies. Online weight management plans can include expert behavioral assistance, prescription management, and continual monitoring. Success in weight loss, however, is dependent on each person’s unique circumstances, level of commitment, and willingness to make long-term lifestyle modifications and adjustments.


If people resume their old, unhealthy habits, weight gain may reappear once treatment ends. Adopting new habits, like maintaining a balanced diet and exercising regularly, are necessary for long-term weight loss. Permanent adjustments that promote weight maintenance are the major objective.


MEDvidi weight loss program is for anyone wishing to reduce body weight and improve their health. Our program is created for people who are obese or overweight, which is typically indicated by a body mass index (BMI) above a specific limit. Taking part in a weight loss program may be suitable for people who have weight-related health issues, including diabetes or high blood pressure.

Weight Loss Therapy: What’s Involved?

Behavioral weight loss therapy

Intensive behavioral therapy for obesity focuses on changing irrational and unhealthy behavior patterns that lead to weight gain.

The therapy process includes:

  • Setting realistic weight loss goals
  • Working on thinking patterns to keep you motivated
  • Evaluating emotions to avoid overeating
  • Learning to conduct self-monitoring regularly

Behavioral therapy focuses on long-term results achieved step-by-step to ensure weight maintenance.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy for weight loss

CBT or cognitive-behavioral therapy can be used to manage the weight loss process.

Patients learn to:

  • Better identify their thoughts and feelings
  • Monitor their eating patterns and behaviors
  • Practice mindfulness and determine if there are things, emotions, or experiences they associate with food, which helps to stop overeating

In addition, CBT helps to improve self-image and identify primary goals of weight loss. Sometimes, those goals are not linked to weight and can be achieved in another way.

The best weight loss therapy also takes your mental state into consideration. You may be tested for depression, anxiety, and other conditions that often accompany weight gain.

Weight Loss Prescription Medications

Sometimes, strong will and self-control are not enough for weight loss. Being overweight can lead to obesity, a metabolic disease that requires medical treatment.

Those patients who meet certain requirements can get prescribed weight loss pills online* at MEDvidi.

A patient can get weight loss pills if:

  • Their BMI is 30 or higher.
  • Their BMI is 27 or higher, and they have chronic health conditions or problems such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or type 2 diabetes.

You will also be informed about all the pros and cons of the prescribed medication.

How Do Prescription Weight Loss Medications Work?

Medications for weight loss, commonly referred to as diet meds or weight reduction meds, have different mechanisms of action, such as:

  • Lowering hunger, which helps people consume fewer calories.
  • Boosting metabolism, which may result in a faster rate of calorie burning.
  • Preventing the body from absorbing dietary lipids, which lowers calorie intake.

Not all people are eligible for weight loss tablets. Healthcare professionals may recommend other options based on a detailed review of one’s health history and current state of health.

Weight loss pills have different mechanisms of action, side effects, and other factors and must be chosen individually. The same medication can work differently for different patients. Your doctor will examine your health history and the medication’s contraindications and interactions before prescribing you weight loss meds.


To receive a weight loss prescription*, one has to be diagnosed with obesity or as overweight by a certified doctor. Having a BMI higher than 30 (or higher than 27 and having related conditions) is a common requirement. The evaluation of your health history and determining the necessity of this type of medication is also needed.


Whether weight loss medications are the best way to lose weight depends on various factors, including your overall health and medical history. Weight loss medications can be effective for some individuals, but they are not suitable or necessary for everyone.


A number of factors, including your weight, adherence to the recommended regimen, and personal response to the medicine, might affect how long it takes to lose weight with weight-loss medication. It’s critical to maintain reasonable expectations and recognize that losing weight is a gradual process.


The period of taking weight loss meds depends on a particular drug. While some weight loss drugs are meant to be taken temporarily, others can be taken for extended periods. Your progress, current health, and any potential side effects will all be taken into account by your healthcare provider when determining the right duration of treatment.


Consult your healthcare provider to ascertain whether weight-loss medication is the best option for you. Your medical history, present health condition, weight loss objectives, and the potential dangers and advantages of the medicine will all be considered. They might take into account things like BMI, obesity-related health issues, and prior weight loss attempts.


To buy weight loss pills online, you need to have a valid prescription from a healthcare provider. Put your safety first and confirm that the medicines you buy are legal and the pharmacy is authorized to sell them. Steer clear of buying diet medications from unreliable websites or without a prescription.
