In a clinical study,* nearly 6 out of 10 people who took Plenity **lost at least 5%** of their body weight. Their average weight loss was 10% **(about 22 pounds)**.     The Research: *Plenity or placebo was given to 436 adults who were overweight or had obesity, with and without type 2 diabetes, over 24 weeks in conjunction with diet and exercise. The study was designed to measure: - whether at least 35% of individuals receiving Plenity lost 5% of their body weight -  in clinical trials, 59% of Plenity responders lost on average 10% of their body weight (22 pounds) in six months - whether individuals receiving Plenity lost 3% more of their body weight than individuals receiving placebo - individuals on Plenity lost on average 6% vs individuals on placebo, who lost on average 4% In clinical studies, there was no difference in overall side effects compared to placebo.
