Within three months of the introduction of Redux, it catches on like wildfire. It has been 23 years since the FDA last approved diet truck. Doctors were writing 85,000 prescriptions a week when FENFEN was introduced. By 1997, they are projecting $220 million in sales of Redux alone,. Not even FENFen. So they are printing money.
Fen-Phen & Redux were "the next miracle drugs" in the '90s, claiming to help people lose dramatic amounts of weight in just three months. But within a few short years, they'd been pulled from the market. They were just too effective! (Just kidding, they killed some people.)
