About Xenical 120mg Capsules

Xenical 120mg capsules, the branded version of orlistat, serve as an effective treatment for weight management. Xenical 120mg operates by targeting the fat in your diet, preventing about one-third of the fat you consume from being digested. This unabsorbed fat then leaves your body in your bowel movements, contributing to weight loss.

What is Xenical used for?

Xenical 120mg is specifically used for weight loss treatment and reducing the risk of weight regain after prior weight loss in adults. It works alongside a reduced-calorie diet to help shed excess pounds, particularly valuable for those with additional risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, or high cholesterol.

In terms of strength,Xenical is typically available in 120mg, which is the recommended dose to help you lose weight. It’s essential to follow the prescribed dose, as this ensures maximum effectiveness and safety.

How does Xenical work?

Xenical interacts with your digestive system to inhibit the action of an enzyme called lipase, which is found in the digestive tract. This enzyme normally breaks down the fat in your food so it can be absorbed. By blocking lipase, Xenical prevents around a third of the fat in your meals from being absorbed, which then passes out of your body in your stools. This process helps you to lose weight as your body absorbs fewer calories from fat.

Who is Xenical 120mg suitable for?

Xenical 120mg is suitable for adults with:

  • A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or more
  • A BMI of 28 or more, if you have other risk factors like high blood pressure or diabetes.

It’s not recommended for children or adolescents under 18 years of age. People with certain medical conditions, such as chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis, should avoid using Xenical.

How to take Xenical capsules

  • Take one capsule with water at each main meal (up to three times a day).
  • It can be taken immediately before, during, or up to an hour after the meal.
  • If you skip a meal or the meal doesn’t contain fat, skip the dose of Xenical.

While taking Xenical 120mg, some people may experience side effects, although not everyone gets them. The patient information leaflet provides detailed insights into these side effects.

  • Oily spotting on underwear
