Shape Your Figure Through Acomplia


Review Summary
Obesity is on the rise in many countries in the world, which has created a need for pharmaceutical grade medications, which can help, those who are chronically obese and require medical intervention lose weight safely. This is where Acomplia comes into play, because it is a pharmaceutical grade anorectic anti-obesity medication sold by Sanofi-Aventis in the UK and Sanofi-Synthelabo in Denmark. As of yet it is not currently available on the US, because it has not received clearance from the proper government agencies.

Ingredients at a Glance
Acomplia’s main ingredient is Rimonabant, which is a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist, which is a complicated way of saying that it can provide users with a reduction in appetite. This is the first “CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist” to be approved anywhere in the world to treat obesity. However, its use is contingent upon the inclusion of a healthy diet and exercise into the lifestyle of users.

Ingredients In Focus
Many view Rimonabant and by extension Acomplia to be the new “wonder drug” of weight loss. It has gone through a variety of clinical studies in which patients took this drug for a year, and the results were very good in terms of weight loss, improved insulin sensitivity, and increases in HDL cholesterol. These studies provided the information that precipitated its approval in Europe.

However, many are watching carefully because it is the first of its kind and works very differently than any other obesity drug. It directly affects a part of the brain called the endocannabiniod system, which regulates relaxation, pain tolerance and pleasure. No one knows how directly interfering with the operation of this system will affect users in the long term. The endocannabiniod system protects the brain during any type of brain trauma; some experts have suggested that use of this product may well block the system from doing its job when it is needed during times of trauma.

Diet Lifestyle
It is important when taking any prescribed medication to carefully review the materials enclosed in order to be aware of any possible side effects. For instance, the following side effects are associated with use of Acomplia - depression, anxiety and nausea. Also, we discovered that roughly 1 in 8 patients who were taking this medication left the study because of these side effects.

It has come to our attention that Acomplia is available in the US via the internet through various overseas distributors, and we can in no way support getting this medication through this method. This is clearly a medical grade pharmaceutical which must be used under medical supervision, especially since it directly affects brain chemistry.

Positives
• May help with true obesity

Negatives
• Must be medically supervised
• Possible side effects both known and unknown
• Not currently available in US at time of review
