Obesity continues to increase in prevalence nationwide, resulting in the worsening of other disease states, such as heart failure, diabetes, and cardiovascular events. Studies have shown that weight reduction can lead to fewer cardiovascular events and decrease the risk of complications associated with co-morbid conditions. Over the past 3 years, there has been progress in the use of medications for assisting patients in losing weight. However, the guidelines have lagged in adding these agents and where they may fit in therapy. Because of this, there are many healthcare professionals that do not realize the options for weight loss, when to utilize them, and most importantly, how they should be used as an adjunct to non-pharmacologic management strategies. This activity reviews all the pharmacologic options in the US market that aid patients in losing weight. It will discuss where medications may fit in therapy, who would benefit from each medication based on a patient-centered care approach. It will also discuss the risks associated with the use.

Marijuana has been around for centuries, and has never received more lime light than in recent years in respect to 95% of our country's states enacting legislation regarding "recreational" and/or "medical" marijuana, even though it remains a Federal DEA Controlled Substance Class One agent. So how does that work in the criminal field? Better yet, how do we as healthcare professionals discuss such substances with our patients?

Can, or should, vaping be utilized as smoking cessation? To answer this question, and countless others, we as healthcare professionals truly need to understand the mindset of someone choosing to smoke tobacco or vape, along with the products being utilized, and the available cessation agents, to ultimately even attempt to have continual and impactful conversations with our patients.
