To account for this , obesity can also be defined on the basis of body fat This application is a 35 USC 371 National Stage Entry of 5 content: greater than 25 % in males and greater than 30 % in PCT /US2011 / 049914 filed Aug . 31 , 2011, and claims the females. benefit of U .

These findings and modified - release dosage forms comprising them . emphasize the inter - relations between risks factors for dia betes and coronary heart disease and the potential value of BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION an integrated approach to the prevention of these conditions based on the prevention of obesity ( Perry, I.

Kidney disease , also called nephropathy , occurs when the Obesity is now a major healthcare issue in the Western kidney ' s “ filter mechanism ” is damaged and protein leaks World and increasingly in some third world countries. The 30 into urine in excessive amounts and eventually the kidney increase in numbers of obese people is due largely to the fails . Diabetes is also a leading cause of damage to the retina increasing preference for high fat content foods but also the at the back of the eye and increases risk of cataracts and decrease in activity in most people ' s lives.

Finally , diabetes is associated with nerve damage , 30 % of the population of the USA is now considered obese . especially in the legs and feet , which interferes with the Whether someone is classified as overweight or obese isS 35 ability to sense pain and contributes to serious infections . generally determined on the basis of their body mass index Taken together, diabetes complications are one of the (BMI ) which is calculated by dividing body weight (kg ) by nation ' s leading causes of death . height squared (m2 ) . Thus, the units of BMI are kg /m2 and The first line of treatment is to offer diet and life style it is possible to calculate the BMI range associated with advice to patients such as reducing the fat content of their minimum mortality in each decade of life . Overweight 18is 40 diet and increasing their physical activity . However, many defined as a BMI in the range 25 - 30 kg /m² , and obesity as patients find this difficult and need additional help from drug a BMI greater than 30 kg /m² ( see table below ). therapy to maintain results from these efforts . Most currently marketed products have been unsuccessful as treatments for obesity because of a lack of efficacy or Classification Of Weight By Body Mass Index (BMI ) 45 unacceptable side - effect profiles . The most successful drug BMI CLASSIFICATION so far was the indirectly acting 5 -hydroxytryptamine ( 5 -HT ) agonist d - fenfluramine (ReduxTM ) but reports of cardiac < 18 . 5 Underweight 18 . 5 - 24 . 9 Normal valve defects in up to one third of patients led to its 25 . 0 - 29 . 9 Overweight withdrawal by the FDA in 1998 . 30 . 0 - 34 . 9 Obesity (Class I ) 50 In addition , two drugs have been launched in the USA and 35 . 0 - 39 . 9 Obesity ( Class II ) Europe: (XenicaTM ) , a drug that prevents absorption > 40 Extreme Obesity ( Class III ) of fat by the inhibition of pancreatic lipase , and (ReductilTM ), a 5 -HT / noradrenaline re -uptake inhibitor. As the BMI increases there is an increased risk of death However, side effects associated with these products may from a variety of causes that are independent of other risk 55 limit their long -term utility . Treatment with XenicaTM is factors .
