Of course, you're right, I edited my comment to reflect that.

Ultimately my point is, drugs can 'influence' you into eating more/less, but they definitely can't prevent you from losing weight while starving yourself.

Generally speaking though, it's very difficult to starve yourself since your body wants to maintain homeostasis. I don't think that's a good way to lose weight, even if it's for the sake of better health.
