Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel medical use of e.g. 4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole compounds which are potent antagonists of the cannabis CB1-receptor in combination with lipase inhibitors. Said compounds are particularly suitable in combination with lipase inhibitors in the manufacture of medicaments for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of obesity in adolescent or in juvenile patients and/or for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of drug induced obesity in juvenile as well as in adolescent patients. The compounds have the general formula (I) wherein the group Bb represents sulfonyl or carbonyl, and the substituents R, R1, R2 and R3, and the group Aa are defined as shown in the description. Preferred lipase inhibitors are orlistat, panclicins, ATL-962 and/or lipstatin.
