Reductil

Reductil is a neurotransmitter reuptake inhibitor and maintains the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine, the balance of natural chemicals in the brain. The active ingredient in Reductil is a substance called sibutramine, which directly targets these chemicals in nerve cells, preventing them from being reabsorbed back into the cells. As a result, a feeling of fullness in the stomach is sent back to the brain. There is a lesser desire to consume food which decreases your calorie intake and consequently, leads to significant weight loss.

In clinical trials, 6000 patients suffering from overweight and obesity issues were given Reductil and placebo treatments to measure the efficacy of Reductil. At the end of the trial after a year, the safety as well as the efficiency of Reductil was demonstrated in the double-blind, placebo-controlled trials. Reductil was found effective and well tolerated in clinical trials.
