VIVUS's obesity drug stands a better chance than ARNA's or OREX's?
I am not really into drug companies and not familiar with much of the technical jargon, but obesity solution is huge and I would like to diversify my portfolio, if you can help me.

From what I have read so far:

ARNA seems to be the safest.
VIVUS seems to be the most efficient in terms of weight loss but safety is a concern.
OREX seems to hold the middle ground between safety and efficiency.

Thank you
