Is Meridia diet pill different than the recalled drug Fen Phen?
Meridia diet pill is different from Fen Phen in that it does not produce extra serotonin and is a serotonin reuptake inhibitor. Abbott Laboratories, Meridia diet pill manufacturer, immediately began their marketing strategy by trying to differentiate Meridia diet pill from Fen Phen as much as possible. Meridia was the first diet pill approved following the Fen Phen disaster.
