Rapid response to behavioral/pharmacological obesity treatments for binge‐eating disorder predicts better clinical outcomes
In a randomized clinical trial testing behavioral and pharmacological obesity treatments for BED with co-occurring obesity, rapid response was a robust prognostic indicator of binge-eating remission and significantly better behavioral, psychological, and metabolic outcomes. Non-rapid response to behavioral and pharmacological obesity treatments could signal a need to switch to alternative treatments.
