Similin (sp?)

My Doctor is planning on putting me on this new medication called similin (not sure if that is how it is spelled, but ok...lol) this fall. I have heard very little of it, but I do know that it is a hormone that most diabetics are either missing or their body doesn't give them enough of it. My dr. said that it is the hormone that tells your body when it is full from eating, causing many diabetics (both type 1 and 2, as far as I know), to over-eat or to not feel like they have eaten enough making them feel deprived. He said that it is a newer medication.

I was wondering if anyone else is on it or if you have any information on it. I want to learn a bit more about it before this fall when I start it. Thanks!
