Wegovy & Diet Medication Rebound Management

Managing diet medication rebound begins on the premise of tapering gradually in discussion with your prescribing doctor, not stopping abruptly. Consultation reviews your tapering plan and lifestyle habits, and together you work through settling the returning appetite while protecting muscle through protein and strength training. Only when habits and metabolism take hold this way does maintenance hold up after the medication is reduced.

Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective

Dongjedang approaches this broadly in four stages: (1) settling disrupted digestion and appetite rhythm to stabilize the foundation of the rebound, (2) clearing accumulated waste from the body to revive metabolism and circulation, (3) rebuilding lost muscle and energy to support basal metabolism, and (4) consolidating a maintenance state where your own regulating power has taken hold. Since the point of disruption differs for each person, the weight given to each stage is tailored based on pulse diagnosis findings, and the pace of tapering the medication is always kept in step with your prescribing physician.
