Are there concerns about side effects from binge eating, overeating, and taking appetite suppressants due to mental health issues?

Hello. This is Doctor Now. Weight gain due to binge eating and overeating and the resulting mental stress are problems that many people are experiencing. Appetite suppressants can temporarily reduce appetite, but they are not a long-term solution. In addition, appetite suppressants can have various side effects, and especially if you are taking blood pressure medication, you should consider drug interactions. If you take blood pressure medication and appetite suppressants together, your blood pressure may rise or your heart may be strained, so it can be dangerous to take them without consulting your doctor. Hair loss problems can also worsen as a side effect of the medication, so you should also be careful about this. It is recommended that you consult a psychiatrist before taking appetite suppressants. It will be safer and more effective to identify the root cause of binge eating and overeating and find an appropriate treatment method. If necessary, it can also be helpful to form healthy eating habits by consulting a nutritionist. Please make a careful decision for your health. Thank you.
