The present invention relates to a method of treating or preventing obesity (or suppressing the appetite) in a human patient by antagonizing CB1 receptors and inhibiting the enzyme 11β-HSD1 in an amount that is effective to treat or prevent obesity. Compounds useful in the present invention have an ion channel activity level greater than about 2 μM. Preferably the compound is a dual selective inhibitor, selectively antagonizing CB1 receptors and selectively inhibiting the enzyme 11β-HSD1
本发明涉及一种通过拮抗CB1受体和抑制11β-H
SD1酶以有效治疗或预防肥胖(或抑制食欲)的方法。本发明中有用的化合物具有大于约2μM的离子通道活性
