About Orlistat
orlistat — Lipase inhibitor
Orlistat is an oral capsule that blocks the absorption of about one-third of dietary fat. Available as branded Xenical or generic orlistat, it is the only non-injectable prescription weight-loss medication widely available in the UK.
Administration
Oral capsule, taken 3 times daily with meals
How it works
Orlistat works by inhibiting pancreatic and gastric lipase enzymes in the gut, preventing the breakdown and absorption of approximately 30% of dietary fat. The unabsorbed fat passes through the body, reducing overall calorie intake.
