In 2012, the FDA approved Qsaimia, which is another Fentermine based weight loss drug. There's this ongoing string of research about whether or not Fenfen could be used in treatment of alcohol and cocaine addiction. In a real fun twist, the defendant is Servier International, which is like a big drug company based in France. They were interneurons partner in buying and selling reducks. So it's truly the same people doing it all again.
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.)
