About this product

Overview

Orlis 120mg Capsule is a weight management medication that contains Orlistat as its active ingredient. Orlistat is designed to help reduce the amount of fat absorbed from your diet. This drug is typically used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to help with weight loss in overweight individuals or those suffering from obesity-related conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol.

Ingredients

  • Orlistat 120mg: The primary active ingredient which prevents the absorption of fats from the diet, thereby reducing caloric intake.

Uses

Orlis 120mg Capsules are used to aid weight loss in adults who are overweight or obese. The medication is most effective when combined with a doctor-approved diet, exercise, and lifestyle regimen. It is particularly useful for:

  • Long-term weight management (weight loss, weight maintenance).
  • Reducing the risk of weight regain after prior weight loss.

Dosage and Administration

The usual dose of Orlis 120mg Capsule is one capsule taken with water immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal (typically three times a day). If a meal is missed or contains no fat, the dose of Orlistat can be omitted.

Precautions

  • Ensure a balanced, calorie-controlled diet that contains approximately 30% of calories from fat. Consuming a meal with too much fat while taking Orlistat can increase the risk of side effects.
  • Vitamin supplementation may be necessary, as Orlistat can interfere with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K).
  • Discuss with a healthcare provider if you have conditions such as an underactive thyroid, a history of pancreatitis, liver disease, kidney stones, or eating disorders.

Side Effects

Common side effects associated with Orlistat include:

  • Gastrointestinal issues such as oily spotting from the rectum, abdominal pain/cramps, flatulence with discharge, urgent or increased need to defecate, and possible fecal incontinence.
  • Headaches.
  • Lower blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes.

Interactions

Orlistat can interact with other medications, so it’s important to inform your doctor about all drugs you are taking, including over-the-counter medications and herbal supplements. Pay particular attention to:

  • Blood thinners (e.g., warfarin)
  • Diabetes medication
  • Thyroid hormones
