Description

Weight gain occurs when fat in food is reabsorbed back to the body. Orlistat works by blocking the enzymes in your gut that digest fat. The fat is passed out of the body as stool. By blocking nearly a third of the fat, you eat, absorbed body fat is reduced and does not add to your weight. Excess weight can increase the chances of health issues such as cholesterol, diabetes, and heart attacks. Orlistat helps to reduce obesity. For best results, take the Orlistat alongside a low-fat diet and exercise.

Warnings

Orlistat may modify the activity of certain drugs. Make sure you speak to your doctor before using Orlistat if you are on other medications. Orlistat may unbalance an anticonvulsant treatment by decreasing the absorption of antiepileptic drugs, thus leading to convulsions.

Directions

Take the tablets 3 times daily for 7 days 1 hour after a meal. If you skip a meal or eat a low-fat meal, there will be no fat to absorb. You, therefore, do not need to swallow Orlistat capsules.

Ingredients

Each capsule contains the active ingredient Orlistat 120 mg. Orlistat capsules contain the inactive ingredients microcrystalline cellulose, sodium starch glycolate, sodium lauryl sulfate, povidone, and talc. Each capsule shell contains gelatin, titanium dioxide, and FD&C Blue No.
