In Nov. 2009, the FDA began a safety review to examine the side effects of Meridia after a study linked the weight loss drug to an increased risk of heart problems. The study, known as SCOUT, revealed a 16% increase in the risk of heart problems, including stroke, heart attack, resuscitated cardiac arrest and death, in patients receiving Meridia compared with those given the placebo. Additionally, the study revealed only a small difference in weight loss between the two groups. The
Meridia heart problems, combined with the drug’s minimal weight loss benefits, prompted the FDA to request a Meridia recall.
