Hormone triggers are responsible for burning fat, right? Why aren’t there drugs that exploit and supercharge this process?

Question

Proper exercise is hard to come by, when your back is basically broken. I want to pop some Notbuprofen and feel the burn as the pounds melt away.

In theory, a drug that stimulates the hormones that demand the burning of fat *should* be possible. Why isn’t it, and/or why has no one made this yet?

The goo you rub on your belly to deflate fat cells and return them to the bloodstream and out the bladder, clogged up arteries quite well.
