How much are weight loss drugs?

I've been trying to lose weight for a while now without much success. My friend told me about some new weight loss drugs, but I'm worried about the cost. How expensive are these medications usually?

In India, oral weight loss drugs like Orlistat cost around 400 to 800 rupees for a pack. But honestly, they only work as long as you are taking them and can cause weird digestive issues. Real, lasting weight loss only happens when you fix your daily food habits and keep moving.

I know how exhausting and desperate it feels when diet and exercise don't seem to work, making you want to try any pill. Basic weight loss drugs cost around 600 rupees, but they can affect your mood and mental health. Please be kind to yourself and speak to a professional doctor first.

Actually, those fancy imported weight loss injections are super expensive, like 10k to 20k per month, yaar. Even the basic pills are around 800 bucks. It is better to just invest that money in a good gym membership and a dietitian.

Standard weight loss tablets in India usually cost around 500 to 1,000 rupees for a month's course. Please be gentle with your body and talk to a doctor before starting them.

I tried some fat burner pills last year that cost me around 1,200 rupees. They just made my heart beat really fast and didn't help with fat loss at all. Save your money and just focus on calorie deficit, it is free and actually works.

Haan, standard tablets 500-1000 rupees ki range mein mil jaati hain. Par inke side effects kafi hote hain, toh doctor ki bina advice ke mat lena na.

Many of these modern weight loss injections are actually diabetes medications, and they are very expensive, costing over 8,000 to 15,000 rupees a month. Please do not take them just to lose weight quickly without consulting an endocrinologist first, as they severely affect your blood sugar levels.
