Tesofensine is a triple reuptake inhibitor that affects dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin—three key neurotransmitters that play a role in appetite control and energy regulation. Initially studied for neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, it was found to significantly reduce body weight in clinical trials.
Tesos 0.5mg is now used as a cutting-edge solution for those struggling with appetite control, food cravings, and stubborn fat loss. It helps users eat less without feeling deprived and can be used in conjunction with exercise and a calorie-controlled diet for optimal fat loss results. It is suitable for both men and women and often used in advanced weight management protocols.
