Description

 Alli Orlistat 60mg Capsules

• Alli Orlistat 60 mg is an over-the-counter weight-loss aid designed to help adults lose weight.
• Contains Orlistat (60 mg per capsule), a medication that reduces the absorption of dietary fat.
• FDA-approved for use in adults with a BMI of 25 or higher.

How It Works

• Orlistat blocks the action of enzymes (lipases) that break down dietary fat in the intestines.
• About 25% of the fat consumed is excreted instead of being absorbed, reducing overall calorie intake.

Benefits

Alli Orlistat 60 mg is a weight loss medication that works by blocking the absorption of some of the fat you eat. Here are some benefits:

1. Weight Loss Support: By preventing about 25% of the fat from being absorbed by your body, it can help you lose more weight when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
2. Lower Blood Pressure: Some studies have shown that using Alli may help reduce blood pressure in overweight or obese individuals, especially when paired with weight loss.
3. Improved Cholesterol Levels: It may help lower levels of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, which can be beneficial for heart health.
4. Prescribed for Obesity Management: It’s often used as part of a weight loss program for people who are overweight or obese, especially when lifestyle changes alone have not been enough.
5. Works in the Digestive System: Unlike some weight loss medications, Alli works by acting in the gut, which means it doesn’t interfere with your brain or metabolism directly.

Dosage

• Recommended Use: Take 1 capsule (60 mg) with each meal containing fat, up to 3 times daily.
