Rimonabant (Generic Acomplia)
January 27th, 2008 Posted by: adminRimonabant (also known as Zimulti, Acomplia, Slimona or Obitone) is an anorectic anti obesity drug. It is a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist. Rimonabant has been found to stop food craving enough to help people lose weight, and could also help curb other unhealthy urges, such as smoking. This is a non-control weightloss solution that in one study, helped people who were overweight drop an average of 20 pounds, and was found to be very useful for patients who suffer from obesity. It is also being studied for its perceived ability to curb drug and alcohol cravings; however it has not been approved for this purpose.
