What is Orlistat?
Orlistat is a medicine that can help you lose importance if you are overweight or obese. Orlistat works by blocking chemicals (enzymes) in the intestine that digest fat. Orlistat 120 mg prevents about a third of the fat you consume from being digested. Undigested fat is not absorbed into the body and is eliminated with feces. The normal prescribed dose is one capsule: 120 mg, three times a day with each feed. 60 mg capsules (Alli®) can also be purchased without a prescription at the pharmacy (see below). Again, the recommended dosage is one capsule with each meal, up to three times a day. However, you don’t need to take one if the meal is fat-free or if you skip a meal. Other weight-loss medications include liraglutide (Wegovy®) and liraglutide (Saxenda®). These are relatively new medications that were first created to treat type 2 diabetes, but they are also being used more frequently to treat weight loss. Only specialized weight management clinics should use these, according to the UK’s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), for patients who have obesity, pre-diabetes, a high risk of heart disease (due to high cholesterol, for example), and in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and improved exercise. That’s why it’s typically only available on the NHS to those who fulfill those requirements. Due to safety concerns, two other medications that were once used to aid in weight loss—sibutramine and rimonabant—are no longer available in the UK.How Does Orlistat Burn Existing Fat Work?
