> Arena gets FDA nod for weight-loss drug; first in 13 years
The FDA gave Arena Pharmaceuticals the green light to market its weight-loss
drug Belviq, the first such drug to be approved in 13 years. Belviq inhibits
appetite signals in the brain and is approved for the treatment of obese
adults, as well as overweight adults with at least one condition related to
their weight. The FDA is continuing to evaluate applications for weight-loss
therapies from Orexigen Therapeutics and Vivus. Reuters
