Orlistat works by blocking chemicals (enzymes) in your gut which digest fat.
Nearly a third of the fat that you eat is blocked by orlistat. The undigested fat is not absorbed into your body and is passed out with your stools (faeces).
The normal dose is one capsule - 120 mg, three times a day, one with each meal.
It is recommended that you reduce your fat intake to 30% of your total calorie intake whilst taking orlistat.
We will work with you to make positive changes to your eating habits, physical activity and lifestyle.
Common side effects include:
-Fatty or oily poo
-Needing the toilet to poo urgently
-Pooing more frequently
-An oily discharge from your rectum
-Farting (flatulence)
