Is this forever?

Answer

The approved labels describe chronic treatment for a chronic condition, which is a different framing from a course of something.

In more detail

Weight-management labeling in this class is written for long-term use, and the trial programs that support it ran for 68 to 104 weeks with maintenance extensions. The underlying tendency the drug is acting on does not appear to change while it is being acted on — which is what the regain data shows. How long any individual stays on anything is a clinical decision, and cost, access and tolerance all sit in that conversation alongside the evidence.
