ABSTRACT

We report a case of significant weight loss experienced by a 44-year-old Caucasian woman treated with reboxetine. She was treated with this drug at 12 mg daily for a total duration of 11 months. During the corresponding period her body mass index (BMI) decreased from a baseline of 21.4 kg m(-2) to a low of 16.8 kg m(-2). Withdrawal of the drug led to a full recovery of her BMI. The strongest evidence linking reboxetine to this woman's weight loss laid in the fact that the re-introduction of the drug subsequently caused a similar negative impact in her BMI.
