In today's society, obesity is common problem which if goes unchecked poses serious health risks. That is why; medical professionals have placed it alongside with some other chronic conditions that include high blood pressure and diabetes which can-not be cured completely. Obesity requires long term treatment in order to promote as well as maintain weight loss. A person is called obese if his ratio of height to weight known as Body Mass Index exceeds by 30%.
The most common method of reducing body weight is taking of healthy diet and doing moderate exercise. But it has been seen in cases of some people especially those in which obesity is hereditary, these methods do not work. There are different classes of medicines used for the weight loss. The most favored amongst them are the "appetite suppressants". As the name itself suggests "appetite suppressants" promote weight loss by suppressing appetite and increasing the feeling of fullness. These pills increase the level of serotonin or catecholamines, two neurotransmitters (chemicals) in the brain which in turn reduces hunger. Diet drugs are available in the market in forms of prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements.

Prescription drugs are the drugs which are approved for the obesity and are safe to use. These medications can cause weight loss of between 5 and 22 pounds. Because of being modest, most of the people prefer using Prescription Diet Pills in order to achieve desired weight loss. However, it has been seen that the effect of these drugs differ from person to person. Some people lose more weight by using these drugs than the others. Prescription Diet Pills are perfect for those obese patients who are medically at-risk of developing diseases such as high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes. By making use of these medications they can lose 10% or more of their body weight within few months.
Unlike prescribed drugs, we can purchase over-the-counter drugs from our local drug store and supermarket without any doctor's prescription. These drugs are regulated by the FDA and contain mostly an active ingredient known as phenylpropanolamine (PPA). Just like over-the-counter drugs, Herbal diet supplements don't require a doctor's prescription and can be easily found at chemist shops as well as in regular supermarkets. Since in preparation of these drugs only natural ingredients are used, hence they come under the category of food products instead of drugs.
