Drug Uses
Acomplia is a newly generated oral drug for suppressing an appetite in adults. It is usually used as an addition to diets and physical activity. Acomplia also diminishes various cardiovascular risk factors that appear in case of obesity and overweight. Trial research also showed Acomplia's anti-smoking effect, when people using this drug for obesity treatment gave up smoking as well. This fact is not officially labeled though.

How Taken
We'd strongly advise you to talk to your doctor and read the leaflet attached to the drug thoroughly for the Safety Information about possible side effects and drug interactions. Take the pill strictly as prescribed by your doctor. The average dose of Acomplia is a 20 mg pill once a day. You should take the pill before breakfast with a full glass of water. Swallow it whole, without chewing.

Drug Class and Mechanism
Rimonabant blocks selectively the work of cannabinoid-1 receptors found in the endocannabinoid system of the body, which answer for the appearance of the feeling of hunger. As a result we eat less and start to slim.
