Plenity

Product Description

FDA-CE cleared novel oral treatment for overweight and obesity that has an unprecedented efficacy and safety profile.

Plenity is a non-systemic medical device that complements pharmacological obesity treatments by enabling early intervention, supporting weight trajectory stabilization after systemic therapy discontinuation, and addressing patients not eligible for systemic therapy.

  • Treat earlier:  lowering the threshold for access to clinical care
  • Treat longer:  ensuring therapeutic continuity and maintenance tools
  • Treat more patients: extending the scope beyond the boundaries of systemic    therapies
