Rimonabant (also known as SR141716; trade names Acomplia, Zimulti)[3] is an anorectic antiobesity drug approved in Europe in 2006 but was withdrawn worldwide in 2008 due to serious psychiatric side effects; it was never approved in the United States.[1][2] Rimonabant is an inverse agonist for the cannabinoid receptor CB1 and was first-in-class for clinical development.[4][5]
