Weight Loss Pills - For Obesity Treatment Only

Weight loss drugs or any kind of prescription-only weight loss medications, are designed and approved for the treatment of obesity. Obesity is a chronic disease with serious health risks, which justifies the use of weight loss drugs despite well known side effects and health risks. Even so, clinical weight trials show that no sustained weight loss and long term weight control is possible by using weight loss pills alone. The use of weight-loss medications to treat obesity should be combined with physical activity and improved diet to lose and maintain weight successfully over the long term.

Weight Loss Pills - Over-the-Counter Diet Supplements

In addition to prescription weight loss drugs, there are a growing number of weight loss or diet supplements that are sold over the counter to assist weight control. These weight loss pills are not regulated by the FDA in the same way. According to the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994, dietary supplements do not need FDA approval (unless they contain a new ingredient, which must then be reviewed by the FDA). Instead, the makers of the diet supplements are responsible for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of their weight loss pills.

"Natural" or "Herbal" Not Always Safe

Weight loss pills that contain herbal or natural sounding ingredients are not always safe. Ephedra (ephedrine, ma huang) has proved to be one of the riskier weight loss supplements. Products containing ephedrine extracts have, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), caused hundreds of illnesses, including: heart attacks, seizures and strokes. They are amphetamine-like compounds with powerful and potentially lethal stimulant effects on the central nervous system and the heart.
