In another randomized controlled trial involving 605 volunteers, a different method was put to test. The volunteers were given 10 milligram of sibutramine per day in addition to a very low-calorie diet. Those who managed to lose at least 5 percent of their baseline weight were randomized to go on taking placebo or 10 milligrams of sibutramine every day for another 18 months. 80 percent of those who took sibutramine managed to maintain their weight loss, compared to only 16 percent of those who took placebo.
