Orlos Capsules are a clinically proven weight loss aid containing Orlistat 60mg, designed to help overweight adults (BMI 28 or above) reduce weight when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Description

Orlos Capsules work by preventing your body from absorbing about a quarter of the fat from the food you eat. The active ingredient, Orlistat 60mg, acts locally in your digestive system by blocking enzymes that break down dietary fat. Instead of being absorbed, this unabsorbed fat passes naturally out of your body, which can lead to changes in bowel movements. To manage these effects and maximise your weight loss, it's essential to follow a reduced-calorie, lower-fat meal plan.

This effective weight management aid is ideal for adults aged 18 and over with a BMI of 28 or more. By incorporating Orlos Capsules Pack of 84 into a healthy lifestyle, you can enhance your weight loss efforts beyond dieting alone. Remember, for comprehensive weight management, it's crucial to combine medication with dietary changes and regular physical activity.

FAQ

How do Orlos Capsules help with weight loss?

Orlos Capsules contain Orlistat 60mg, which works by blocking the absorption of about 25% of the fat you consume in your meals. This unabsorbed fat is then passed out of your body, helping to reduce your overall calorie intake and support weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Who is Orlos Capsules suitable for?

Orlos Capsules are suitable for overweight adults (18 years and over) who have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 28 or more. It should always be used in conjunction with a healthy, balanced diet that is reduced in calories and fat, and regular physical activity.

Do I need to take a multivitamin with Orlos Capsules?

Yes, it is recommended to take a multivitamin supplement containing vitamins A, D, E, and K once a day at bedtime while taking Orlos Capsules Pack of 84. This is because Orlos can reduce the absorption of these fat-soluble vitamins from your diet.

What are the common side effects of Orlos Capsules?

Due to the way Orlos Capsules work by preventing fat absorption, common side effects can include oily stools, flatulence with discharge, urgent bowel movements, and increased frequency of bowel movements. These effects are usually reduced by sticking to a lower-fat diet.

How long can I use Orlos Capsules for?

You should not take Orlos Capsules for more than six months without consulting your doctor or pharmacist. It is important to regularly assess your progress and ensure continued suitability for the treatment.
