Olisat 120 mg Capsule

Olisat 120 mg Capsule contains Orlistat 120 mg (hard gelatin capsule). Prescription required.

Management of obesity/overweight for weight loss and weight maintenance in adults, as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet; helps reduce risk of weight regain and may improve obesity-related risk factors (e.g., dyslipidemia).

Orlistat inhibits gastric and pancreatic lipases in the gut, preventing breakdown and absorption of about 30% of dietary fat. The unabsorbed fat is excreted in stools, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss.

Oral capsule. Take 120 mg three times daily with each main meal containing fat, during the meal or up to 1 hour after. Skip the dose if a meal is missed or contains no fat. Follow a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet; take a multivitamin (A, D, E, K) at least 2 hours before/after or at bedtime.

Oily spotting, flatulence with discharge, urgent bowel movements, oily/fatty stools, increased defecation, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fecal incontinence, headache
