Reductil
Generic
Name: sibutramine hydrocloride
Description:
Reductil (sibutramine
hydrochloride monohydrate) is an orally administered agent for the
treatment of obesity.
Reductil is normally taken
once a day in the morning.
This medicine contains the active ingredient sibutramine hydrochloride
monohydrate, which is a type of anti-obesity medicine. It works by
affecting neurotransmitters in the brain. Neurotransmitters are
chemicals that are stored in nerve cells and are involved in
transmitting messages between the nerve cells. They are released from
nerve cells as a message is transmitted.
Once the message has been transmitted, the nerve cells then reabsorb the
neurotransmitter. Sibutramine prevents two of these neurotransmitters,
noradrenaline and serotonin, from being reabsorbed back into the nerve
cells. This enhances the feeling of fulfillment from eating, and so
makes you feel satisfied after eating less food.
