Optimal results are achieved when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. Long-term use should only be considered under a physician's guidance. To maximize effectiveness, avoid consuming high-fat meals concurrently. Commonly reported side effects include steatorrhea, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea.
