Weight Loss Tablets

Side effects depend on the specific product. Orlistat-based tablets can cause digestive changes, such as oily stools or flatulence, especially when the diet is high in fat. Appetite-related medications may cause nausea, constipation or other symptoms. Always read product information and consult a pharmacist or doctor before starting a new medicine.

Different weight loss tablets work in different ways. Orlistat-based tablets reduce the amount of fat your body absorbs from food. Appetite-related medications mimic gut hormones that signal fullness and reduce hunger. Ultimately, all such treatments are intended to support your efforts with diet and lifestyle changes rather than replace them.
