Lots of patients are asking about Redux (dexfenfluramine)

June 1996

Lots of patients are asking about Redux (dexfenfluramine). It's the first new diet pill in over 20 years...and the first to be approved for long-term use.

Redux is the dextro isomer of fenfluramine (Pondimin). The dextro isomer is thought to be more active than the levo isomer for suppressing appetite...and seems to have fewer side effects.

Redux works by increasing serotonin levels. This tends to decrease appetite and reduce carbohydrate craving.
