Resumo: | The increase in the use of weight loss medications reflects the pursuit of quick results but carries significant risks. From appetite suppressants to fat absorption inhibitors, these options promise immediate efficacy but often lead to adverse effects such as insomnia, irritability, increased blood pressure, and nausea. Many of these medications are banned in several countries due to the health issues they can cause, including cardiac issues, depression, and even the risk of death. The research is based on 19 carefully selected bibliographic studies out of 61 that were analyzed. The results highlight the dangers associated with weight loss medications such as sibutramine, femproporex, orlistate, phentermine, fenfluramine, dexfenfluramine, GLP-1 receptor agonists (liraglutide, semaglutide), and the combination of bupropion with naltrexone. The study aims to raise awareness about the dangers of these medications, emphasizing the importance of detailed patient information regarding risks, benefits, side effects, and off-label use. In this way, it promotes a more holistic understanding of weight loss, highlighting the need for professional guidance and healthy choices. |

Desde inhibidores del apetito hasta inhibidores de la absorción de grasa, estas opciones prometen eficacia inmediata, pero a menudo provocan efectos adversos como insomnio, irritabilidad, aumento de la presión arterial y náuseas. Muchos de estos medicamentos están prohibidos en varios países debido a los problemas de salud que pueden causar, incluyendo enfermedades cardíacas, depresión e incluso riesgo de muerte. Este estudio profundiza en el análisis de los riesgos asociados con el uso de estos medicamentos, con el objetivo de contribuir a la difusión de información crítica sobre esta práctica. Además, plantea interrogantes sobre el uso indiscriminado, influenciado por la presión estética en los medios de comunicación y redes sociales, mientras examina tanto medicamentos con licencia como no autorizados por la Anvisa. La investigación se basa en 19 estudios bibliográficos cuidadosamente seleccionados, de los 61 que fueron analizados. Los resultados resaltan los peligros asociados con los medicamentos para la pérdida de peso, como la sibutramina, el femproporex, el orlistat, la fentermina, la fenfluramina, la dexfenfluramina, los agonistas del receptor de GLP-1 (liraglutida, semaglutida) y la combinación de bupropión con naltrexona. El estudio tiene como objetivo abordar los peligros de estos medicamentos, haciendo hincapié en la importancia de proporcionar información detallada al paciente sobre riesgos, beneficios, efectos secundarios y uso fuera de las indicaciones. De esta manera, promueve una comprensión más holística del enfoque para la pérdida de peso, destacando la necesidad de orientación profesional y elecciones saludables.O aumento do uso de medicamentos para emagrecimento revela a busca por resultados rápidos trazendo consigo riscos significativos. Desde inibidores de apetite e de absorção de gordura, essas opções prometem eficácia imediata, mas frequentemente causam efeitos adversos como insônia, irritabilidade, aumento da pressão arterial e náuseas. Vários desses medicamentos são proibidos em diversos países devido aos problemas de saúde que podem causar, incluindo doenças cardíacas, depressão e até mesmo risco de morte. A pesquisa se baseia em 19 estudos bibliográficos criteriosamente selecionados, dentre 61 que foram analisados.

Assim, este estudo visa abordar sobre os perigos desses medicamentos, enfatizando a importância da informação detalhada ao paciente sobre riscos, benefícios, efeitos colaterais e uso fora das indicações promovendo desta forma uma compreensão mais holística da abordagem ao emagrecimento, destacando a necessidade de orientação profissional e escolhas saudáveis.Research, Society and Development2023-12-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/4447410.33448/rsd-v12i14.44474Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 No. 14; e07121444474Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 Núm. 14; e07121444474Research, Society and Development; v. 12 n. 14; e071214444742525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/44474/35565Copyright (c) 2023 Naynara Martins Oliveira; Joquebede Rodrigues Pereirahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Naynara Martins Pereira, Joquebede Rodrigues 2024-01-01T11:23:38Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/44474Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-01T11:23:38Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
