What weight-loss drug has been permitted long-term use?

Friday, October 9th, 2009

For the medication to lose weight this matter, in society there are two distinct views. Opponents said: “The three points are toxic drugs, can not take medication or do not try to eat more Yao Chi, the body become resistant to treatment contrary to the subsequent trouble, but what kinds of weight-loss drug may allow long-term use it?

According to the investigation, the current international long-term use be allowed only two kinds of weight-loss drugs, but these drugs will be needed to exclude the human body to absorb nutrients.

Women BMI> 23 should be to lose weight

Department of Endocrinology, Beijing Union Medical College Hospital, Professor Yi-Fan Shi said the current international weight-loss drugs can be divided into two broad categories, namely the central role of the central role of drug and non-drug, drug side-effects due to the central role of the large, currently only sibutramine be allowed to use. The non-central role of the drug present, only one, namely, orlistat capsules, relatively safe.

It is understood that the common weight-loss drugs on the market are the main ingredient sibutramine hydrochloride, according to the national authorities concerned for approval, recommended for body mass index (BMI) ≥ 27 people, but experts believe that Chinese women BMI> 23 , male BMI> 25 on the weight loss treatment should be carried out.

Body mass index, BMI = body weight (kg) / height squared (m)

Weight-loss drugs: good, bad fats all refused to

The role of sibutramine is to some extent affect the appetite, while promoting reduced food intake, which can cause high blood pressure, headache, dry mouth, constipation, insomnia and other side effects; Orlistat is a fat synthase inhibitor, it has a direct effect on the gastrointestinal tract, affecting fat absorption, the drug should be taken when taking a low-fat diet, or a lot of fat is not absorbed, it will cause diarrhea.

FU Qiu-ming, of Orlistat on fat in foods are all excluded. If the affected animal fat absorption, which is the exclusion of poor health “bad fat”, so of course good; but unfortunately, this drug also affects the absorption of fat the body really need, that is, vegetable oils such as the exclusion of the “good fats” are bound to affect human health.

At the same time, the body needs fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) is accompanied by absorption of fat absorption, when the absorption of fat is affected, the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins are also affected. Therefore, the use of such drugs to lose weight losses than gains.

Weight loss is a gradual thing

Slimming clothes to be done before the sleep assessment “Obesity is a disease, not self-serving weight-loss drug trouble.” Shi Yifan said, weight-loss drug to be used under the guidance of doctors. Should be by a doctor under the patient’s body mass index, waist size, blood pressure, blood lipids, blood glucose values, whether there are functional disorders, sleep apnea to conduct valuation, according to valuation results of treatment recommendations, the issuance of prescriptions.

The most effective way to treat obesity is to reduce the dietary calories, increase physical activity and proper medication. Department of Endocrinology, Peking University People’s Hospital director of JI Li-nong said: “expect a weight control within two months, within the normal range is very unrealistic to lose weight is like down the stairs, only one step down, only for each days to change bit by bit. ”

Weight-loss drug only “dehydration”, not weight loss

Once it took slimming pills day, eat the food in general would be reduced, the actual daily caloric intake will be reduced. If people are less than the required daily intake of hot-hot-cards Qatar, the amount, then the body would mobilize their stored energy source to supply energy. For example, FU Qiu-ming, said: “If a person needs 2000 kcal of energy per day of food, but only the intake of 1000 kcal a day, when the body’s energy component will be broken down to supply energy. ”

“But in the short term, the human body due to a lack of calories the body will first break down stored glycogen to glucose to supply energy. In particular muscle glycogen contains a lot of water, when the glycogen burning, a large number of water will be released This very significant weight loss. “He said, Jie Mi, when the body of the lost are mostly water.

Therefore, relying solely on drugs “weight” is actually the first to lose mostly muscle where the water, and then is fat, there is need to maintain a healthy protein. Although this can reduce body weight, weight loss is not real. And those who, once medication withdrawal, body weight usually rebound.
