Brief Answer:
phentermine, possible

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.

There are some medications like phentermine and a new combination medication that is a combination of phentermine plus topiramate that are probably safe for weight loss. However there are no pills that will target a specific area of the body for weight loss.

Exercise to build up the muscles in your buttocks will be the most effective thing at reducing fat in that area. Any weight loss medication can have side effects. Also with all weight loss medications, the weight will come back after you stop the pills unless you have changed your diet and exercise program while you were on the pills.

Good luck with your weight loss.
