Essentially, these medications forcibly send a signal to the body saying, 'You've had enough to eat.' While the pharmacological mechanism of modern medicine is very precise, these drugs can cause a sharp decline in digestive function, leading to side effects such as nausea or dizziness. Having experienced the struggle of extreme dietary restrictions myself, I empathize with these challenges. From the perspective of Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), we do not view this simply as a matter of 'appetite suppression.' A sudden, drastic reduction in intake can easily lead to 'Bi-heo' (脾虛), or Spleen Deficiency, which weakens the digestive system and impairs nutrient absorption, leaving you feeling chronically fatigued. Furthermore, if the body has an accumulation of 'Dam-eum' (痰飮, phlegm-fluid retention) or 'Eo-hyeol' (瘀血, blood stasis), the risk increases. Without addressing these, the body may fail to recover its original metabolic capacity after stopping the medication, creating the perfect environment for a yo-yo effect. While pharmacological aid in reducing intake is helpful, it must be accompanied by a process to improve the body's own 'metabolic efficiency' to burn energy naturally.
