What is Lomaira (8 mg) used for?

Lomaira 8 mg is a prescription medicine used for weight loss (as part of a doctor-supervised program) in people with obesity. It is intended to help reduce body weight and help maintain weight loss over time [1].

What condition does Lomaira treat?

Lomaira is used in adults who meet clinical criteria for obesity, when lifestyle changes alone are not enough. Prescribers typically combine it with diet changes, increased physical activity, and behavioral approaches [1].

How does Lomaira work for weight loss?

Lomaira contains phentermine, a stimulant-like appetite suppressant. It helps lower hunger, which can reduce calorie intake and support weight loss when used as directed by a clinician [1].

What should patients expect while taking it?

Lomaira is used alongside an ongoing weight-management plan. If weight-loss goals are not being met, clinicians may stop the medication and reassess the treatment approach [1].
