Acomslia is a diet pill and it considered as an
experimental pill that offers the promise of helping people lose
weight and quit smoking simultaneously.
This is the for the first time a diet pill is launched which is to
have an additional function as an antismoking drug other than a
weight loss drug.
The main component of Acomslia diet pill is Rimonabant. It works by
blocking CB1 receptor, one of two receptors found in a newly
described physiological system called the Endocannabinoid System
(EC System), believed to play a critical role in the regulation of
food intake and energy expenditure.
This anti smoking diet pill is aimed at blocking the CB1 receptors
of the brain commonly called the ‘pleasure centre’ of the brain
and interfering with the cycle of craving and satisfaction thus
making hunger or cigarette pangs more manageable.
These receptors are present not only in the hypothalamus region of
the brain, but also throughout the body, notably in fat cells--
which are involved in lipid and glucose metabolism. They work by
reducing dependence on tobacco, suppressing appetite and restoring
the balance in the system. Some analysts have also started
considering Acomslia Rimonabant as a heart drug. Its medicinal
implications on major cardiovascular risk factors – smoking and
obesity can be considered a major medical advance for patients at
risk of heart disease.
