Experimental Weight-loss Drug Cuts Appetite, Burns More Energy
The first clinical studies of an experimental drug have revealed that obese people who take it for 12 weeks lose weight, even at very low doses. Short-term studies also suggest that the drug, called taranabant--the second drug designed to fight obesity by blocking cannabinoid receptors in the brain -- seems to cause people to consume fewer calories and burn more.
