Why is this drug prescribed?
Ionamin is used as an appetite suppressant. Ionamin is used in conjunction with an overall diet plan to reduce weight. Drugs of this class are thought to suppress appetite via a central mechanism (app
etite centers in the brain) although this has mechanism has not been clearly proven. IONAMIN is the only medicine of this class that is set in resin. The resin allows the compound to be released slowl
y into the blood stream. Some patients prefer it because they believe it to be associated with fewer side effects.
