Sibuthin Capsule uses for
Sibutramine is used in the management of obesity, including weight loss and management of weight loss. It should be used in conjunction with a reduced caloric diet. Sibutramine is recommended for obese patients with an initial body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 or ≥27 kg/m2 in the presence of other risk factors (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia)
The recommended starting dose is 10 mg administered once daily with or without food. If there is inadequate weight loss, the dose may be titrated after 4 weeks to a total of 15 mg once daily. The 5 mg dose should be reserved for patients who do not tolerate the 10 mg dose. Blood pressure and heart rate changes should be taken into account when making decisions regarding dose titration. Analysis of numerous variables has indicated that ≈ 60% of patients who lose at least 4 lbs in the first 4 weeks of treatment with a given dose of Sibutramine in combination with a reduced-calorie diet lose at least 5% (placebo-subtracted) of their initial body weight by the end of 6 months to 1 year of treatment on that dose. Conversely, ≈ 80% of patients who do not lose at least 4 lbs in the first 4 weeks of treatment with a given dose do not lose at least 5% (placebo-subtracted) of their initial body weight by the end of 6 months to 1 year of treatment on that dose. If a patient has not lost at least 4 lbs in the first 4 weeks of treatment, consider reevaluation of therapy which may include increasing the dose or discontinuing Sibutramine. The safety and efficacy of Sibutramine have not been determined beyond 1 year at this time.
