   • Semaglutide (Ozempic, Rybelsus, Wegovy) Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. This drug mimics the action of GLP-1, a gastrointestinal hormone.
   • Liraglutide (Saxenda) Similarly to semaglutide, liraglutide is also a GLP-1 agonist medication that helps to control blood sugar levels. Liraglutide was originally approved by the FDA to treat type 2 diabetes.
   • Phentermine-topiramate (Qsymia) Phentermine works by affecting the central nervous system, leading to appetite suppression and, consequently, weight loss.
   • Orlistat (Alli, Xenical) Orlistat is available in pill form as a prescription medicine (Xenical) and as a reduced-strength, nonprescription medicine (Alli).
