[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 15 year old has gained a lot of weight since COVID and is now over 30 BMI. They have tried dieting and psyc eating disorder treatment for over 6 months including residential and nothing has worked. We are interested in seeking wegovy as it is approved but can't find a doctor who will prescribe to teen. Help appreciated [/quote] If your child on any meds that cause weight gain? One option is to tweak those medications or see if there are different meds they can use instead. For example, some psychiatrists start with Risperdal to stabilize the child and then transition them to something like Lamictal which doesn't have weight gain as a side effect.[/quote]
