Treatment and Medications for Metabolic Syndrome
Prevention and the first line of treatment for Metabolic are the same--lifestyle modification. Good balanced nutrition, exercise and smoking cessation are number 1 on the list and are very effective. There are currently no medications specifically for Metabolic Syndrome, but medications targeted to treat specific risk factors have been found to be very effective.
Healthy Lifestyle Changes is the First and Most Effective Treatment
To prevent and reverse the risk factors associated with the Metabolic Syndrome, weight loss, healthy diet, exercise and smoking cessation are number one. This involves great changes in every area of your life. The Metabolic Syndrome is the result of learned unhealthy lifestyle behaviors. It is not too late at any age to learn healthy new behaviors.

Medications To Treat the Metabolic Syndrome Risk Factors
Lifestyle modification is the number one treatment for the Metabolic Syndrome. For many, this proves to be a great difficulty and medical management becomes necessary. There are no medications available to specifically treat the Metabolic Syndrome. Your doctor may prescribe a medication that will treat the individual risk factors. Medication is only secondary to ongoing efforts to a healthy diet, weight loss and exercise, otherwise your heart health and diabetes risks will continue to increase.

Treatment Begins With Healthy Lifestyle Changes
Treatment for Metabolic Syndrome begins with aggressive lifestyle changes and yes, this includes quitting smoking. Lifestyle changes alone are very effective. But, if these changes don't work for you, medical treatment is aimed at reducing specific risk factors such as hypertension, high cholesterol and insulin resistance. See more here.
