However, some drugs have great side effects. Therefore, obese people should not blindly take drugs to reduce their intake. It's best to consult a doctor, find out the disease of obesity, and then choose drugs to reduce weight, or lose weight in other ways. At present, there are many drugs to lose weight in the domestic market, including western medicine and Chinese medicine. These drugs generally fall into four categories:
Category I: appetite suppressants. There are mainly florfenicol, benomyl, fenfluramine, Jiangtangling and so on.
The second category: increasing metabolic drugs. Mainly suitable for obesity complicated with respiratory insufficiency. Such as thyroid tablets and progesterone.
The third category: drugs that reduce nutrient absorption. Such as laxatives and cellulose preparations. The fourth category: traditional Chinese medicine. Such as Xiaopangmei, Xuezhiling, slimming granules, etc. The most commonly used weight-loss drugs mainly stimulate the hypothalamus and regulate food appetite.
Among them, amphetamine (central stimulant) has the effect of inhibiting muscle hunger and appetite; And Fan Feilamin, which stimulates fullness and suppresses appetite. It should be pointed out that all the drugs we have always used contain hypermetabolic thyroid hormones. It is taboo for obese patients with complications. In short, we must listen to the doctor's advice and follow the doctor's advice when using drugs for treatment. Never take some so-called "diet pills" at random.
During taking diet pills, you must go on a diet to lose weight. Most diet pills only strengthen the weight loss effect of dieting, and they have no direct fat removal effect; The effect of losing weight comes directly from dieting, so dieting is the main means of losing weight, and diet pills are only auxiliary means; Those who take diet pills for a long time without dieting at the same time will not only lose weight, but also become psychologically dependent on the drugs. It is difficult to stop taking the drugs after addiction. If you don't continue dieting after stopping taking the diet pills, you will gain weight again soon. If you don't take diet pills, you will lose weight only by dieting, and you will succeed. Although it takes a short time to achieve the weight loss target, the weight loss effect is easier to maintain. Dieting to lose weight is a life-long thing, and it can't be interrupted. But the longer the diet pills are used, the worse the efficacy of weight loss will eventually fail. Buy diet pills only when necessary, and never use them all the year round.
