I am curious about the effects, side effects, and prescribing criteria for obesity injections.

Recently, managing my weight hasn't been going as well as I'd hoped, so I am looking into weight loss injections while combining diet and exercise. Since this is my first time encountering this, I would like to know under what circumstances a prescription can be obtained, and if there are any additional factors checked during the consultation besides weight and BMI.

I would also like to know how long it usually takes to notice changes in appetite or weight after starting weight loss injections. I have heard that it varies greatly from person to person, so I am curious whether the same dosage is used from the start or if it is adjusted gradually based on one's physical condition.

I have also heard that side effects such as nausea or stomach discomfort can occur while using weight loss injections. I am curious about how common these are in reality and how to manage them if symptoms appear. I would also like to know if managing diet and exercise alongside the injections helps with the effectiveness and maintenance of the results.

Finally, I am curious about the likelihood of weight regain after stopping the weight loss injections following a certain period, and how maintenance is typically managed. For those who have actually received a consultation or prescription, please share your experiences regarding the costs, the usage process, and your satisfaction level.
