Dying to lose weight

Article Abstract:

Redux, the brand name of dexfenfluramine and a favorite pill of dieters, causes primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH). The drug, though good for those with a body-mass index (BMI) of at least 30, may be taken by people with no obesity problems especially when taken with a combination of phentermine and fenfluramine.
