Drug Design of Antiobesity Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors
The obesity is a disorder with increasing prevalence in the last decodes, which makes it a real global epidemy. The obesity is a bind of trigger factor or aggravating factor for others diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, cerebral and cardiovascular diseases, coagulation disorders, articular and degenerative diseases, hepatic esteatosis sleeping apnea and others. In patients with morbid obesity, the associated diseases have increased risk of complications with higher mortality. The medical attitude in relation to obesity have changed nowadays particularly in the recent years, improving its prevention as well as the treatment. Copyright Moreira Jr. Editora
