Abstract
After several years with no real therapeutic alternatives, the management of obesity is entering a new era with the development of new surgical and endoscopic bariatric techniques, digital therapeutics and the arrival of new classes of drugs. New medication treatments aim to reduce food intake, targeting the hypothalamic regulation of food intake and satiety. The mechanism of their action remains poorly understood but, combines weight reduction and amelioration of cardiometabolic risk factors with a favorable benefit-risk balance and known side effects, mainly digestive. The future will tell us how these drugs will find their place in the management of this chronic disease that is obesity.
