A member asked:
Is it safe to use isotretinoin (for acne) and sibutramine(weight reducing drug) together ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sibutramine: Sibutramine is no longer available in the U.S. The manufacturer has decided to stop producing sibutramine based on information from a recent clinical study. In this study, people taking sibutramine had an increased risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke. If you are currently taking sibutramine, you should stop taking this medication and call your doctor to discuss switching.
