Overview Slimfast 120mg Capsule

Orlistat 120mg capsules are prescribed for weight management in obese individuals. The medication functions by inhibiting fat absorption within the gastrointestinal tract, thus reducing caloric intake and promoting gradual weight loss. Typically, three capsules are taken orally daily, with each main meal (or up to an hour afterward) containing fat. An additional dose can be taken up to two hours post-midday snack. Optimal results are achieved with concurrent exercise and a balanced diet. Prolonged use should only be considered under a physician's guidance. To maximize effectiveness, consuming fat-rich foods alongside the medication should be minimized. Common adverse effects may include steatorrhea (fatty stools), abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. Report any concerning side effects promptly to your doctor, who may adjust dosage or offer alternative treatment. Use during pregnancy or lactation requires a doctor's prescription. Prior to starting this medication, disclose existing health conditions and any concurrent medications to your physician. Long-term use is not recommended except as directed by your doctor.
