# Weight-Loss Drug Study for Kids 6 Years and Older
– A recent study suggests that a weight-loss drug can be effective for children as young as six years old.
– The study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, followed children aged 6 to 11 who were prescribed the drug for a year.
– Results showed that the children who took the weight-loss medication lost more weight compared to those who were given a placebo.
