Meridia UsesMeridia is used to help people lose weight and help prevent people from regaining the weight they lost. It works by increasing the levels of specific chemicals in the brain, including serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. As a result, it promotes a feeling of fullness. Meridia is not approved for use in children under 16 years old. At this time, there are no standard off-label Meridia uses.
