Overview
Obetas 120mg Capsules (20 pack) contain orlistat, a weight-management medicine that works in the gut rather than on the brain or appetite. Orlistat blocks some of the enzymes that digest dietary fat, so about a quarter of the fat eaten passes through the body undigested. Helping weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. It is used to support weight loss in overweight or obese adults, often as part of a wider plan including diet and exercise. A doctor- or pharmacist-guided weight-management aid for people committed to a healthier-eating plan.
Active: Orlistat 120mg per capsule.
Directions for Use
Take only as directed. Usually one capsule with water immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal (up to three times daily). If a meal is missed or contains no fat, skip that dose. Combine with a nutritionally balanced, reduced-calorie diet in which fat is spread across meals. Take a multivitamin (containing vitamins A, D, E and K) at bedtime, as orlistat can reduce their absorption.
Follow a lower-fat diet. Eating high-fat meals increases unpleasant effects such as oily or urgent stools, wind with oily spotting and loose motions. Do not use if you have chronic malabsorption or gallbladder problems. Tell your doctor if you take diabetes, thyroid, epilepsy or blood-thinning medicines, as doses may need adjusting. Take a bedtime multivitamin. Not for use in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Store below 25°C. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice.
