What are the other uses for Acomplia?

Because Acomplia acts on the lipid system to reduce the levels of cholesterol in your blood stream, it indirectly helps to prevent the onset, or progression, of arteriosclerosis — a general hardening of the arteries. For the same reason, it helps to reduce some of the cardiovascular problems connected with the build-up of fatty deposits in and around the heart. This effect works in combination with your efforts to improve your levels of physical fitness and should reduce the need to have surgery for the insertion of a stent or other interventions to assist your heart function. Finally, there is evidence that it may help to control Type 2 Diabetes. This is work connected with a study of the peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and the suggestion is that the combination of appetite control, blocking the CB1 receptors and PPAR activation through the use of Acomplia is the explanation for the beneficial effect seen in clinical trials.

Acomplia works to block some of the chemistry forming the pleasure centres of the brain. The most obvious examples of the benefits that can flow from this are the improved ability to stop smoking. However, the link between stimulus and addiction is not limited to nicotine. There are many other hard and soft drugs used for recreational purposes. Acomplia seems to break the associational link between a recreational drug and the expected pleasurable effect. This makes it easier to break patterns of addiction and dependence. Clinical trials have found that Acomplia is effective in supporting people who want to quit taking both hard drugs like cocaine and soft drugs like cannabis. The drug works by reducing the general desire for that kind of pleasure and fewer people who take Acomplia relapse into drug abuse.

At a slightly more speculative level, some researchers suggest the possibility that Acomplia may help to improve your short-term memory. A chemical called tetrahydrocannabinol is known to adversely affect your memory storage and, in studies using rats, there is evidence that Acomplia blocks the effect of this member of the cannabinoid family and allows the rats to improve their memory recall. Trials are underway to find out whether the same effect is replicated in humans.
