What is Reductil?

Reductil® (Sibutramine) is a medication that, if used in conjunction with a healthy diet, can help people who are suffering from Obesity to successfully lose weight. Reductil works by enhancing the feeling of fullness after eating less than normal, as part of a calorie reduced diet. This makes it far easier to eat less, resulting in a lower daily calorie intake amongst patients which in turn can result in significant weight loss. The treatment itself has been developed and marketed by US-based Abbott Laboratories and has been available as a medicated solution to Obesity since its release in 2001. Since then, the popular appetite suppressant has helped thousands of people to reach their weight loss goals and has consistently demonstrated its success rate of 77% at achieving this amongst the general population in a series of clinical trials and studies.

How does Reductil work?

Reductil is an appetite suppressant and works by increasing the levels of certain chemicals allowed to freely act on the brain, which causes a substantial reduction in both hunger and food cravings amongst patients. These effects are thanks to the medications active ingredient Sibutramine, which causes an increase in the production of noradrenaline and serotonin, both of which affect the satiety centre of the brain, known as the hypothalamus. This enhances the feeling of fulfilment from eating, and so makes you feel satisfied after eating less food which reduces a patient’s calorie intake to below that of which the body needs to function, causing the body to use fat stores and reserves which results in weight loss. Reductil has also been shown to prevent the fall in basal metabolic rate (BMR), which often accompanies efforts to lose weight. A reduction in metabolic rate often makes it more difficult to lose weight and is a survival technique employed by the body which results in less calories being used and more being stored so by helping to sustain this rate it is possible to achieve optimum weight loss whilst using this treatment.
