Plenity is indicated to aid weight management in adults with excess weight or obesity, a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 25–40 kg/m 2 , when used in conjunction with diet and exercise. Made from naturally derived building blocks found in fruits, vegetables, cellulose and citric acid, Plenity helps you feel satisfied. Plenity is not a drug or appetite suppressant. It’s not a diuretic that makes you shed water weight. In fact, it’s not absorbed from the digestive tract. Plenity is a FDA-cleared weight loss aid that takes up space in your stomach and helps you feel fuller at meal time and throughout the day. *If a pre-meal dose is missed, take Plenity during or immediately after that meal.

Take these 20 minutes to plan your meal and focus on you.

You must drink 16 ounces of water for Plenity to work.

Take three capsules with water 20 minutes before lunch and dinner.*

Unfortunately, Medicare does not cover medicines for obesity, though they are beginning to offer free counseling sessions for it. Some select Medigap and Medicare Advantage plans for retirees, however, do cover medicines for obesity. If you have one of these plans, please check with its administrator.

There’s a growing movement to get better coverage for weight management and obesity. You can help the cause by learning about and supporting the Treat and Reduce Obesity Act (TROA), to provide more funding and better treatment options for health care providers to address obesity, including intervention, counseling, and drug treatment.

Learn more about the TROA

You can help! Urge your Senators and House of Representatives member to cosponsor and support final passage of TROA. Your efforts can make a difference for you and countless other people who need help with treating obesity.
