subject: Get Update about obesity with the help of The Online Clinic [print this page] In the United Kingdom, 60% of the population are heavier than they should be. Rather than picking up a tennis racket or going for a walk we are looking for a quick fix to cure ourselves of our obesity. Obesity has many and varied contributing factors. Certain medications and even contraceptives can directly influence the possibility of becoming obese. In some cases obesity is hereditary but this is not an excuse. Irregular eating habits, oversized portions and an absence of regular exercise are the main reasons for the developing and then sustaining of such weight.
There is no such thing as a quick fix really. Obesity treatments will be prescribed to an individual based on their personal medical history, weight and lifestyle. Weight loss drugs must be taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and an active lifestyle. Dramatic weight loss is not an approach to weight loss that is recommended by medical professionals. This rapid loss will not only affect your health and especially your heart, but it will increase your chances of putting the weight back on again. Taking these treatments as prescribed and maintaining a healthier more balanced lifestyle simultaneously will help you lose weight moderately and safely. Presently, Xenical is the only prescription medication for weight loss licensed for use in the European Union. This particular type of treatment does not suit everyone but if you are taking Xenical, a strict diet must be followed as eating fatty foods will cause serious stomach problems and feelings of discomfort. There are other alternatives such as the herbal, Appesat. This has proven to be a useful treatment depending on the individual. Most of all however, the majority are still crying out for Reductil (Sibutramine), despite concerns raised by the European Medicines Agency on January 21st of this year. Abbott (the manufacturer) has been exercising their belief in their product by continuing to carry out rigorous trials in the hope that they will pass the test.
This may happen sooner than you think considering that Meridia (made by Abbott) and Lorcaserin (made by Arena) are both facing judgement day this September as Abbott stands before the FDA and as Arena stands before the same panel twenty four hours later. Scott Davies, of Abbott, maintains that Meridia (Sibutramine) will be as effective as it was and only dangerous when taken by patients who have not been prescribed the medication in accordance with the original guidelines, in particular those who are already considered to have a high cardiovascular risk.
Arena's chances look good considering that their shares have increased a massive 80% since the results of their most recent clinical trials have become known and their latest reports have not stated any cases of heart related illnesses with the administration of Lorcaserin.
It may take time before we see these drugs available to prescribe in the UK though. There is a huge desire for the return of drugs like Reductil (Sibutramine); however, taking these drugs before they have the full support of bodies such as the European Medicines Agency, is foolish and the results could be fatal. Ask your GP about the latest advancements and keep an eye out for online clinic websites and health news pages for news and updates on the ever changing world of weight loss pills.
