Frequently Asked Questions

The active ingredient in Reductil – sibutramine hydrochloride monohydrate – affects neurotransmitters in the brain. Neurotransmitters are chemicals stored in nerve cells that are involved in transmitting messages between these cells. When a message is transmitted these neurotransmitters are released from nerve cells only to be reabsorbed after the message has been transmitted.

Reductil stops two of these neurotransmitters – noradrenaline and serotonin from being reabsorbed into the nerve cells. These two neurotransmitters are responsible for controlling mood and other processes in the brain. An increase in the amount of free noradrenaline and serotonin enhances the feeling of fullness received from eating. Reductil thus makes you feel satisfied even after eating less food. Buy Reductil and start eating less.
