Features Sibutramine 20mg
Sibutramine 20mg is a serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. It acts to affect the re-capture of neurotransmitters of 5-hydroxytryptamine (called serotonin) and noradrenaline into brain nerve cells. Neurotransmitters are chemicals that enable nerve cells to communicate. By blocking their reuptake, sibutramine increases the amount of these neurotransmitters in the brain. Increased levels of neurotransmitters in the brain help patients read more food and help reduce their intake of food.
Sibutramine 20mg, combined with diet and exercise, is used in overweight patients with body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 30 kg / m2 and in overweight patients with BMI greater than or equal to 27 kg / m2 who also have risk factors associated with obesity such as diabetes type II or dyslipidemia (abnormal blood fat). Other medicines like IFA Norex, Sibutramine , Asenlix help to loss weight.
