What are Alli Weight Loss Capsules

alli 60 mg hard capsules (orlistat) is a peripherally acting antiobesity product used for weight loss in adults aged 18 and over who are overweight, and have a body mass index (BMI) of 28 or above. alli should be used along with a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet.

BMI is a way to determine if you have a healthy weight or are overweight for your height. The chart below will help you decide whether or not you are overweight and alli is right for you.

Risk of being overweight

Being overweight increases your risk of developing several serious health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease. These conditions may not cause you to feel unwell, so you should see your doctor for a general health check.

How alli works

The active ingredient (orlistat) in alli targets fat in your digestive system. It stops about a quarter of the fat in your meals from being absorbed. This fat will pass out of the body in your stools (see section 4). It is, therefore, vital that you commit to a lower-fat diet to manage these effects. If you do, the action of the capsules will assist your efforts by helping you to lose more weight compared to dieting alone. For every 2 kg (4 lb) you lose from dieting alone, alli can help you lose 1 kg (2 lb) more.

What you need to know before you take alli

Do not take alli:

• If you have cholestasis (a condition where bile flow from the liver is blocked).
• If you are taking ciclosporin, used after organ transplants, for severe rheumatoid arthritis and some severe skin conditions.
• If you are allergic to orlistat or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• If you are taking warfarin or other medicines used to thin the blood.
• If you have problems absorbing food (chronic malabsorption syndrome), it is diagnosed by a doctor.

How to take Alli Weight Loss Capsules

Choose your start date - Choose the day you will start taking the capsules ahead of time. Before taking the capsules, begin your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and give your body a few days to adjust to your new eating habits. Keep a record of what you are eating in a food diary. Food diaries are practical because they make you aware of what you are eating and how much you eat and give you the basis to make changes.

Decide on your weight loss goal - Think about how much you want to lose, then set a target weight. A realistic goal is to lose between 5% to 10% of your starting weight. The amount of weight you lose may vary from week to week. It would be best to lose a gradual, steady pace of about 0.5 kg (1 lb) weekly.

Set your calorie and fat targets - To help you reach your weight-loss goal, you must set two daily targets, one for calories and one for fat.
