Wegovy & Diet Medication Rebound Management

The first few weeks right after stopping or reducing the medication are the toughest period for appetite rebound. If you stop suddenly during this time, hunger and fatigue can hit all at once and become overwhelming. On the other hand, if you taper gradually with your prescribing doctor while combining protein intake, strength training, and sleep management, appetite and weight usually settle into a new balance over about two to three months. The recovery speed varies depending on the duration of weight loss, muscle mass, and lifestyle habits.

Our Korean Medicine Clinic's Perspective

Dongjedang proceeds step by step — starting from stabilizing disrupted digestion and appetite, then clearing accumulated waste and reviving metabolism. While the medication is tapered gradually, herbal medicine cushions the toughest points of the rebound, so you first notice changes like "feeling less hungry and less drained" before the pace shifts into the stabilization phase.
