Are diabetes drugs good for weight loss?
New studies are showing that pramlintide (also known as Symlin,) a drug that's used to lower blood sugar in diabetes patients, might be an effective medication for weight loss in obese patients. The drug is a synthetic version of the hormone Amylin, which regulates gastric emptying. The results are promising as a life-saver for people who are chronically obese. Still, if it can help people lose weight, should it? Sure, patients taking it might end up thin, but they won't necessarily be healthy -- their hearts may still compromised, they'll still be at a higher risk for many diseases, and chances are they'll still have unhealthy diets and little to no exercise. True health only comes from a healthy diet and plenty of exercise -- there's no pill that will help you achieve it.
