Meridia Sibutramine 15 mg 30 Caps by Knoll

What is Meridia?

Meridia affects chemicals in the brain that affect weight maintenance. Meridia is used together with diet and exercise to treat obesity that may be related to diabetes, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure.

Important Information:

Do not use Meridia if you have taken an MAO inhibitor such as (Furoxone), (Marplan), (Nardil), (Azilect), (Eldepryl, Emsam), or (Parnate) in the last 14 days. Serious, life-threatening side effects can occur if you use Meridia before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body. You should not take Meridia if you are allergic to sibutramine, or if you have severe or uncontrolled high blood pressure, an eating disorder (anorexia or bulimia), if you are taking stimulant diet pills, or if you have a history of coronary artery disease, stroke, or heart disease.

Before taking Meridia, tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, depression, under-active thyroid, seizures, a bleeding disorder, a history of gallstones, or if you are older than 65 or younger than 18.

Tell your doc about all prescription and over-the-counter medications you use, especially antidepressants, cold or allergy medication, narcotic pain medicine, or migraine headache medicines. Tell your doctor if you do not lose at least 4 pounds after taking the medication for 4 weeks along with a low calorie diet.
