Dr. Malak Al-Dahesh, lead scientific assessment expert at the Saudi Food and Drug Authority, said that Foundayo is a new addition to available weight loss options.

In an interview with Al Ekhbariya TV, she explained that the medication helps reduce appetite, increase feelings of fullness, and decrease food intake. This leads to weight loss when used alongside a healthy diet and physical activity.

She added that the medication is intended for adults with obesity, as well as overweight adults who have at least one weight-related condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or lipid disorders.

Al-Dahesh noted that the Saudi Food and Drug Authority approved the registration of the medication after a comprehensive evaluation of its quality, efficacy, and safety according to approved standards. She highlighted that it is an important addition to treatment options, as it is taken orally once daily.
