    There is a place for these weight loss drugs. You just need to take a look at some of the chronic illness support groups. For instance Hashimoto’s and PCOS. Many people with these conditions cannot lose weight despite eating well and exercising. Some of these drugs also reduce inflammation in the body.

      The place for weight loss drugs is in the hands of anyone that needs them. The benefits to society are wider than just the individual. You can tackle things like A&E waiting times. Do we need support systems in place too, absolutely, but if someone needs help, give them.
