The best drugs

Sibutramine (aka Reduxin, Goldline, Lindaxa and Meridia) is one of the most popular appetite suppressants, but cannot be purchased without a prescription. There are also a number of serious side effects.

Fluoxetine (Prozac) - An antidepressant, serotonin reuptake inhibitor, available at the pharmacy by prescription.

Metformin (Glucophage, Siofor) is a relatively safe drug with a complex mechanism of action. The effect has been confirmed by numerous studies.

Orlistat (Xenical, Xenalten, Orsotene, Listata) - reduces the absorption of fat, but in the absence of a diet causes digestive upset and is little effective.

Acarbose (Glycobase) - reduces absorption of carbohydrates. Can also cause digestive upset if diet is not followed.

Complex Fat Burners

Professional athletes most often resort to using anabolic agents, growth hormone, clenbuterol, ephedrine, and peptides.
