Xenical Orlistat 120 Mg 84 Capsules
DESCRIPTION
Xenical is an oral prescription medication formulated to aid in weight loss and long-term weight maintenance in individuals with obesity or significant overweight when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. It contains the active ingredient Orlistat (120 mg), a reversible gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor that acts locally within the lumen of the stomach and small intestine to prevent the enzymatic breakdown and systemic absorption of approximately 30% of dietary fat, packaged in a box of 84 capsules.
Key Benefits
-
Facilitates weight loss by preventing the digestion and absorption of roughly one-third of dietary fat.
-
Supports long-term weight maintenance and helps reduce the risk of weight regain.
-
Acts locally within the gastrointestinal tract with minimal systemic absorption into the bloodstream.
-
Can contribute to improvements in cardiovascular risk factors, including blood pressure and lipid profiles, alongside lifestyle modifications.
-
Blister-packed for an organized 4-week supply under standard three-times-daily dosing.
Key Ingredients
-
Orlistat (120 mg): A potent, specific, and long-acting inhibitor of gastric and pancreatic lipases that prevents triglycerides from hydrolyzing into absorbable free fatty acids and monoglycerides.

-
Standard therapeutic dosage: 120 mg per capsule

How to Use
-
Take one (1) capsule (120 mg) with water immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal containing fat (maximum 3 times daily).
-
If a meal is missed or contains no dietary fat, omit the dose.
-
Consume alongside a nutritionally balanced, mildly hypocaloric diet where fat accounts for approximately 30% of total calories to reduce gastrointestinal side effects (e.g., oily spotting, loose stools).
-
Because orlistat can reduce the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K), take a daily multivitamin supplement at bedtime or at least 2 hours before/after taking Xenical.
-
Use under the supervision of a healthcare professional; contraindicated in chronic malabsorption syndrome and cholestasis.
