Why does Form Health ask if I have active drug or alcohol use disorder?

People who have active drug or alcohol use disorder are recommended to get treatment and be stable prior to joining a structured weight care clinic. We have to ensure treatment is safe and can be effective for our patients, and active drug and alcohol use disorder can interfere with many aspects of our program, including healthy nutrition, building recurrent healthy habits, and appointment attendance. Also, some of the medications we prescribe are not safe to take in the context of active drug and alcohol use disorders.
