dirlotapide
dir·lo·tap·ide (dir-loґtə-pīd) a selective inhibitor of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein; it blocks the assembly and release of lipoproteins into the bloodstream and is used in the treatment of obesity in dogs. It is believed to act both by reduction of fat absorption by cells lining the intestine and by early production of a satiety signal wich decreases food consumption.
