How should Orlistat be taken?

Orlistat is typically administered three times daily alongside meals that include fat. If you miss a meal or consume one without fat, you can omit that dose of Orlistat.

Can I take Orlistat while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Orlistat is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication in these conditions.

Will Orlistat help me lose weight on its own?

Orlistat aids in weight loss when combined with a diet low in calories and fats, plus regular exercise. It prevents your body from absorbing a portion of the fat from your meals. However, it's not effective on its own; adopting healthy lifestyle habits is crucial for it to work as part of a broader weight management plan.

How much extra weight can I expect to lose?

Orlistat is clinically proven to boost your weight loss efforts. A general rule of thumb is that for every 2 kilograms you lose through your own diet and exercise, Orlistat can help you lose another 1 kilogram.
