There may soon be what some are referring to as exercise in a pill. It is possibly one of a few different prescription diet pills that could make it to the market. The one that seemingly holds the most potential in my opinion is called Qnexa. This is a drug that mixes two other drugs in specific amounts that end up creating a mixture that has been shown clinically to help people lose weight at levels not possible with diet and exercise alone. While there is possibly abuse potential with such a drug, it is intended to be used for only the obese and not for someone just wanting to lose a few pounds.

It looks like sometime this spring there will be an fda meeting on it and the future of Qnexa will be made a little clearer. While some people are fuming about such a drug, others are cheering in hopes that if it is approved, that their doctor will prescribe it for them so they can shed the pounds off they seemingly are unable to. But doctors warn patients that all medication does come with varying side effects and to be sure to talk to your doctor and know what you may be getting into with any medication.
