FDA To Rule On Acomplia In Spring 2007
"US regulatory authorities have announced that they will decide this spring on whether to approve the prescription use of the cannabinoid receptor antagonist SR 141716A, to be marketed by Sanofi-Aventis Pharmaceuticals as a diabetes treatment and anti-obesity drug under the trade name Acomplia (Rimonabant). In July, the selective cannabinoid blocking agent received regulatory approval in a handful of European nations as a dietary aid. Acomplia is the first cannabinoid antagonist ever to be approved for human consumption.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will review newly published clinical data indicating that Acomplia significantly lowers blood sugar levels in humans compared to placebo. The FDA had previously denied Sanofi permission to market Acomplia in the United States."
