What happens when I have reached a healthy target weight?

When you have reached a healthy target weight, you begin determining a maintenance dose. This is the dose of medication you need to remain weight stable, i.e. to stay in energy balance. The maintenance dose is your medical support to prevent weight regain. Research shows that individuals who stop taking medication tend to regain weight. At present, we do not know how long each individual will need to continue medication – for many, it may potentially be lifelong.
