- W2007694061 abstract "This study evaluated the long-term efficacy and safety of the combination of phentermine and fenfluramine for the treatment of obesity in a private practice setting. A total of 1388 consecutive, qualified patients presenting to a private general internal medicine practice in Charlotte, NC, were enrolled with eligibility criteria including: age 18 years to 60 years, 20% over desirable bodyweight or body mass index > 27, no serious medical or psychiatric disease, and no contraindications to drug therapy. Patients were instructed in diet, exercise, and behavior modification techniques and received phentermine (15 mg/day to 30 mg/day) and fenfluramine (20 mg/day to 60 mg/day) continuously for over 3 years. Average duration of treatment was 15.9 months, and average weight loss at the last visit was 11.6 kg, or 11.7% of initial bodyweight. For patients completing 1 year of drug treatment, mean weight loss was 16.5 kg, or 16% of initial weight. Weight loss persisted for 2 years, but partial regain was seen at 3 years. The dropout rates were 18% at 6 months, 39% at 1 year, 68% at 2 years, and 78% at 3 years. At 1 year, blood pressure of hypertensive patients fell from 151/95 mm Hg to 127/78 mm Hg, and serum cholesterol and triglycerides of hyperlipidemic patient fell by 0.750 mmol/L (29 mg/dL) and 0.937 mmol/L (83 mg/dL), respectively. Adverse events were modest. We conclude that, in a private practice setting, long-term treatment of obesity with the combination of phentermine, fenfluramine, and a weight maintenance program is generally safe and effective. More research is needed to determine efficacy and safety for longer than 3 years." @default.
