Need to manage your weight? Orlistat 60mg directly inhibits the absorption of dietary fat. This means you absorb fewer calories from fatty foods, aiding in weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
This medication works by blocking about 30% of the fat you consume from being absorbed into your body. This isn’t a magic bullet; you’ll still need to focus on healthy eating habits and regular exercise. Expect to see results gradually. Remember that consistent effort is key.
Important Considerations: Orlistat 60mg can cause gastrointestinal side effects such as oily stools, gas, and urgent bowel movements. These are common, but if they become severe, consult your doctor. Also, discuss any other medications you are taking with your physician before starting Orlistat 60mg, as interactions are possible. Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
Your doctor can help you determine if Orlistat 60mg is right for you. They’ll assess your overall health and discuss potential risks and benefits. Don’t self-medicate; a personalized approach is vital for safe and successful weight management.
