The role of gepants in the prophylactic treatment of episodic migraine – part II Review article
Main Article Content
Abstract
Increasing amount of yellow adipose tissue in men leads to overweight (BMI 25–30 kg/m2) and obesity (BMI > 30 kg/m2) becoming common medical conditions and growing multidiscyplinary problem. It is crucial to define the presence of the metabolic syndrome elements and/or insulin resistance. Despite lifestyle modification: diet with a daily calorie deficit, systematic physical exercises and bariatric surgery (which we discussed in the first part of this paper), the second line of treatment is pharmacotherapy. Some medications used for treatment of other medical conditions can also contribute to weight loss, eg. medicines acting on central nervous system and used for diabetes. The knowledge of available treatment options and understanding of mechanisms underlying the disease are crucial to obtain satisfying results fighting with obesity problem.
