Have you tried every diet, every workout plan, and every cleanse, only to watch the scale barely budge? You are not alone, and the problem usually is not your willpower. For many people, nonstop cravings and constant “food noise” quietly sabotage progress long before they even reach the kitchen.
At Old Town Med Spa, the MD Brothers, Dr. Nael Gharbi and Dr. Shazel Gharbi, bring more than a decade of medical expertise to every weight loss plan. As physicians board-certified in Internal Medicine and Aesthetic Medicine, they design protocols built around your body, your goals, and your long-term health.
What Is Naltrexone for Weight Loss?
Naltrexone is an FDA-approved medication that, at lower doses, has become a powerful tool in medical weight loss. It works on the brain’s reward and appetite pathways to reduce cravings, dial down emotional eating, and make portion control feel more natural. It is often paired with complementary therapies as part of a comprehensive plan within our Rapid Medical Weight Loss Program.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
Naltrexone may be a strong fit if you have struggled to lose weight despite diet and exercise, battle persistent cravings, or want a physician-supervised, non-surgical option. Candidates are typically adults in the overweight or obese range who are committed to lasting lifestyle change. Your provider will review your medical history, current medications, and goals during a one-on-one consultation to confirm naltrexone is right for you.
What to Expect From Your Treatment
Your journey begins with a thorough health evaluation. The MD Brothers discuss your weight history, eating patterns, lifestyle, and any underlying conditions before prescribing the right dose for you. Most patients start at a low dose, which is gradually adjusted to balance results and comfort.
Follow-up visits track your progress and fine-tune your protocol. Because naltrexone works best as part of a complete strategy, your plan may also include nutrition guidance and other treatments offered through our rapid medical weight loss Program.
Results You Can Expect
Most patients notice quieter cravings within the first few weeks and steady weight loss over the following months. Results vary based on starting weight, adherence, and lifestyle factors, but with consistent use and the right support, naltrexone can be a true turning point in your weight loss journey.
