Psychological, pharmacological, and combined treatments for binge eating disorder: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Open accessAbstract
Objective: To systematically review the efficacy of psychological, pharmacological, and combined treatments for binge eating disorder (BED). Method: Systematic search and meta-analysis. Results: We found 45 unique studies with low/medium risk of bias, and moderate support for the efficacy of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and CBT guided self-help (with moderate quality of evidence), and modest support for interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), and lisdexamfetamine (with low quality of evidence) in the treatment of adults with BED in terms of cessation of or reduction in the frequency of binge eating. The results on weight loss were disappointing. Only lisdexamfetamine showed a very modest effect on weight loss (low quality of evidence). While there is limited support for the long-term effect of psychological treatments, we have currently no data to ascertain the long-term effect of drug treatments. Some undesired side effects are more common in drug treatment compared to placebo, while the side effects of psychological treatments are unknown. Direct comparisons between pharmaceutical and psychological treatments are lacking as well as data to generalize these results to adolescents. Conclusion: We found moderate support for the efficacy of CBT and guided self-help for the treatment of BED. However, IPT, SSRI, and lisdexamfetamine received only modest support in terms of cessation of or reduction in the frequency of binge eating. The lack of long-term follow-ups is alarming, especially with regard to medication. Long-term follow-ups, standardized assessments including measures of quality of life, and the study of underrepresented populations should be a priority for future research.

In a prospective study, semaglutide decreased binge frequency and craving intensity, and improved Binge Eating Scale scores.
“In a prospective study, Semaglutide decreased binge frequency and craving intensity, and improved Binge Eating Scale scores.”

The Results sections discuss other medications, including lisdexamfetamine and SSRIs, but no passage in our copy addresses semaglutide. Searches for semaglutide, craving intensity, and Binge Eating Scale scores did not locate the claimed prospective-study finding. (LLM, conf=0.76)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThese results were consistent in patients with moderate to severe BED, as well as in the entire sample.
“These results were consistent in patients with moderate to severe BED, as well as in the entire sample [134].”
From Precision obesity medicine: A phenotype-guided framework for pharmacologic therapy across the lifespan (2025) · cites this paper as [134]
The Discussion reports treatment findings for the review sample, but does not compare those findings with results for patients with moderate-to-severe BED. Searches for severity subgroups and whole-sample comparisons found no passage establishing the claimed consistency; the Discussion’s reference to symptom severity describes the sample, not a subgroup analysis. Page numbers were not available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.73)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
