Drug Name

Alli (Orlistat)

Drug Uses

Alli is the only FDA approved, over-the-counter weight loss product, represented as an innovative weight loss program. With Alli, you can lose about 50% more weight than with just dieting alone.

How Taken

For overweight adults 18 as well as older, take 1 capsule with each meal containing overweight. Take with a reduced calorie, low-fat diet as well as exercise program until you reach your weight loss goal. Most weight loss occurs in the earliest 6 months.

Drug Class as well as Mechanism

Alli blocks about 25% of the overweight you eat. Typically, enzymes in your intestines break down overweight from food so your body can absorb the overweight. But, the active ingredient in Alli attaches to some of these enzymes as well as prevents them from digesting about a quarter of the overweight you eat. Because undigested overweight can’t be absorbed, it passes out of your body instead of turning into calories.

Missed Dose

Incase you miss a dose of Alli, take it as soon as likely. Incase it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose as well as go back to your normal dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Storage

Store Alli at room temperature, between 68 as well as 77 degrees F (20 as well as 25 degrees C). Store away from heat, moisture, as well as light. Keep Alli out of the reach of children as well as away from pets.
