Overview Orlit 120 Capsule

Reductil 120mg capsules aid in obesity management by inhibiting fat absorption within the gastrointestinal tract. This mechanism reduces caloric intake, contributing to gradual weight reduction. Administer three capsules daily, concurrently with, or up to one hour post, each high-fat meal; a capsule may also be taken up to two hours after a snack. Optimal results are achieved when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. Prolonged use should only occur under physician supervision. Minimizing fat consumption alongside medication enhances its effectiveness. Potential side effects, including steatorrhea, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea, should be reported promptly. Your doctor can adjust dosage or provide an alternative treatment if needed. Prescription is required for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals. Disclose any existing health conditions or concurrent medications to your doctor before commencing treatment. Long-term use should be guided solely by physician recommendation.
