XENICAL contains the active ingredient orlistat. XENICAL is used to assist with losing weight, maintaining a certain weight and preventing weight regain. XENICAL belongs to a group of medicines called lipase inhibitors. These medicines work by preventing the absorption of dietary fat in your body rather than by suppressing your appetite.

XENICAL is a weight control medication for the management of significant obesity. XENICAL targets the absorption of fat in your body rather than suppressing your appetite. Dietary fats are large molecules which need to be broken down by enzymes called lipases before they can be absorbed into the body. When taken with a meal, XENICAL interferes with the activity of these enzymes. This allows about 30% of the fat eaten in the meal to pass through the gut undigested. Your body therefore cannot convert these excess calories to fatty tissue or use them as a source of energy. This will therefore help you to reduce your weight, maintain your lower weight and minimise any weight regain. XENICAL is a prescription weight-control medication useful for the long-term treatment of significant obesity. XENICAL can also help to improve risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar which, if not treated, could lead to other diseases such as hypertension and diabetes.

Diet

• Plan your meals - aim for less than 40 to 50 grams of fat per day and choose a well-balanced diet with plenty of vegetables, fruit, wholegrains (pasta, rice, breads and cereals). Fish, skinned poultry and lean low fat meats.
• If you can't get by without a snack, try a piece of fresh fruit or a muesli bar.
• Alcohol stimulates the storage of fat and is also high in calories.
• Eat at least three well planned meals every day including breakfast.
• Drink plenty of water - 5 or more glasses daily.
• A low fat soup or salad at the beginning of a meal will fill you up.
• Watch how much you eat and avoid second portions! It takes time for your brain to recognise that your stomach is full.
• Eat slowly - don't rush your food.

Exercise

• Increased physical activity is an important component of losing weight. Stop thinking about exercise and start thinking about being active. Try these ideas:
• Get out of your chair and go for a walk for ten minutes - do that two or three times a day.
• Take the stairs instead of the lift.
• Go for a walk for 20 minutes, do some gardening or something enjoyable which involves physical activity every day.
• Start at a level you can manage and build up your level of physical activity over time.
• Being physically active will help increase energy and reduce weight. As your weight is reduced it's easier and more fun to be active.

General Information

While XENICAL is an ideal medication for the treatment of weight-control problems, it is not suitable for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Xenical’s active ingredient is Orlistat. Orlistat is what’s known as a lipase inhibitor, which means that it reduces your body’s ability to break down and absorb fat, so you retain less of the fat that you eat. Xenical prevents roughly 33% of the fat you consume being absorbed into the body.

Xenical weight loss treatment

The active ingredient in Xenical is orlistat. Orlistat works by blocking the fat that you have to absorb through your digestive system (pear scalp and stools). This is achieved through a combination of genetic and non-genetic fat burning and absorbed fat in the stools. Orlistat blocks about 33% of the fat you have to absorb through your digestive system (about 3% of the fat that you have to absorb). This process reduces the amount of fat you absorb from food.

Xenical safety information

Xenical contains orlistat. Xenical works by blocking about 33% of the fat you consume being absorbed into the body.

Xenical is to treat people who are overweight or obese. This medicine works by targeting the absorption of dietary fat in your body rather than suppressing your appetite.

Dietary fats are large molecules that need to be broken down before they can be absorbed into the body. They are broken down by enzymes called lipases. That is, lipases play an important role in the digestion of dietary fat. When taken with a meal, Xenical interferes with the activity of these enzymes. This allows about 30% of the fat eaten in the meal to pass through the gut undigested. Therefore, your body cannot store these excess calories as fatty tissue or use them as a source of energy. This helps you to reduce your weight by burning up fat that you are already carrying, maintain your lower weight and minimise any weight regain. Losing even small amounts of weight and keeping it off produces additional health benefits for you, especially when you are at risk for other diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. Xenical can also help to improve risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar. If these are not treated, they could lead to other diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. Xenical should be taken in conjunction with a well-balanced calorie-controlled diet and other appropriate measures such as exercise.Active Ingredients:Xenical does not contain sucrose, gluten, tartrazine or any other azo dyes.
