A study over these drugs, imported into Uzbekistan illegally and seized by law enforcement agencies, found that they contained sibutramine. This is an anorexigenic drug, an amphetamine-type drug, a psychostimulant that reduces appetite and increases the feeling of satiety. In Uzbekistan, sibutramine is included in the list of potent substances.
The above 19 drugs are not registered in Uzbekistan as medicines (they are not included in the State Register of Medicines and Medical Devices).
UzPharmNazorat warned of criminal liability for the illegal circulation of potent or toxic substances into circulation.
