About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of adding a digi-physical treatment tool as a complement to the local treatment with obesity medication in adolescents with obesity. The main question it aims to answer is:

\- Can a combination of a digi-physical treatment tool and obesity medication improve treatment outcomes for patients with obesity compared to patients treated with obesity medications alone?

This is a randomized controlled two-arm multicenter study where participants will be randomized to the intervention group (digi-physical treatment+medication) or control group (medication only). Participants will be followed for six months.
