The information contained in Target Obesity was assembled during 2007. While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in Target Obesity, the complexity of pharmaceutical research means that not all potential medicines listed here will successfully complete their clinical trials. Readers should therefore note that their availability for eventual use is by no means certain. The author and the ABPI disclaim all responsibility for errors and omissions.
