(FILES) This picture taken on October 23, 2008 in Paris, shows a pharmaceutical giant Sanofi-Aventis' anti-obesity drug Acomplia. Sanofi group announced on November 5, 2008 that it stops the clinical studies about Acomplia after EU authorities suspended sales of this drug across the continent. The EU has allowed sales of Acomplia since 2006, but the drug has not been authorised in the United States where authorities believe it encourages suicidal thoughts, even in patients with no history of depression.
