What Is Orlistat 120mg?
Orlistat 120mg capsules help adults lose weight by reducing the amount of fat absorbed from food. It is usually prescribed for adults who:
Have a BMI of 30 or above
Have a BMI of 28 or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure
Orlistat works best when combined with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity.
How Orlistat Works
Orlistat contains a medicine known as a lipase inhibitor. When taken with meals that contain fat, it:
Blocks enzymes that break down fat in the digestive system
Prevents around 30% of dietary fat from being absorbed
Allows undigested fat to pass naturally through the body
This reduction in calorie absorption supports gradual and steady weight loss.
Why Choose Orlistat?
Orlistat provides clinically proven weight-loss support for people who struggle to lose weight through diet alone.
Works locally in the gut, not the brain
Does not suppress appetite
Helps manage dietary fat intake
May improve cholesterol and blood sugar levels when used correctly
