A Friend of Mine Child Is 15 Years Old and Is the Same Size as an Adult

Her child is very over weight. The child is 5'4 and and weighs 217 pounds. As far as medicines since she is the appropriate weight would she be able to take the same dosage as an adult? If you look at her age I guess one might say no but her size might make a difference. My friend was thinking about giving her something over the counter for weight loss??? I know she needs to see a doctor first. Please help. The child is becoming depressed.
