Nastech has deveolped a new drug to treat obesity. This drug is in nasal spray form and according the test taken, show that the drug is effective. The spray contains the effective peptide ingredient called YY 3-36(PYY), a hormone made by the small intestine. This hormone is what sends the message to brain saying they have ate enough.

Another positive of this drug is it would not have to be taken as an injection, instead its just nasal spray!
