What is Acomplia (Rimonabant)?

Acomplia manufactured by French pharmaceutical company `Sanofi-Aventis` is the latest weight loss drug online!

Losing weight is a task easier said than done. But now with the option of buying Acomplia online, weight loss becomes mercifully simple.

Acomplia Summary:

- A single pill has been found to stop both food and cigarette cravings enough to help people quit smoking and lose weight, and could also help curb other unhealthy urges.
- Named Acomplia the drug in one study helped people who were overweight drop an average of 20 pounds and in another doubled the chances that smokers would quit.
- Rimonabant (which will be brought to market as Acomplia) works by blocking the CB1 receptor, one of two receptors found in a newly described physiological system called the Endocannabinoid System (EC System), believed to play a critical role in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure.
- Researchers wondered whether a drug that halted this action might curb appetite, and in 2001, the first animal study was conducted at the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in Bethesda, Md.
- When the normal mice were given rimonabant, which blocked their CB1 receptors, the mice reduced their food intake.In 2002, Sanofi-Synthelabo began human testing.
- Acomplia works by selectively targeting and blocking the CB1 receptors, helping normalize the over-activation of the EC system and making hunger or cigarette cravings more manageable.
- This blocking of signals that control cravings appears to result in weight loss, improvement of cardiovascular/ metabolic risk factors in overweight/obese patients and appears to reduce tobacco dependence without post cessation weight gain in people who smoke.
- Meridia (Reductil in Europe) was originally a drug meant to treat depressions and can have severe side-effects as well, like high blood pressure, sleeping problems (Insomnia), constipation and dry-mouth syndrome.
- This causes a lot of strain on many of the body systems and phentermine should therefore not be used for longer periods and only in obesity cases and not for treating common overweight.

How Acomplia works?

The active ingredient in Acomplia is Rimonabant and it works by blocking the CB1 receptor, one of two receptors found in our body`s physiological system called the Endocannabinoid System (EC System). It is believed the EC system plays a critical role in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure.

Acomplia works by selectively targeting and blocking CB1 receptors, thus helping stabilize the over-activation of the EC system and managing hunger cravings in a better way.

Thus, once you can control cravings you will see significant results in weight loss and improvement of cardiovascular/ metabolic risk factors normally found in overweight/obese patients

What is the recommended dosage of Acomplia?
Acomplia should be taken once a day, before breakfast. The normally recommended Acomplia dosage is 20mg which should be swallowed with a full glass of water.
