XENICAL 120MG CAPS 84
General
XENICAL contains the active ingredient orlistat.
XENICAL is to treat people who are overweight or obese.
Indications
XENICAL belongs to a group of medicines called lipase
inhibitors.
These medicines work 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.
Dosage
Your doctor will tell you how many XENICAL capsules to
take each day.
The recommended dose of XENICAL is one 120 mg capsule
taken three times a day. Swallow capsules whole with a
glass of water. Do not open the capsules and do not take
any capsules that are damaged.
Warnings
XENICAL can
cause harmless changes in your bowel habits, such as
fatty or oily stools.
Tell your doctor if you notice any of the following and
they worry you:
* increased flatulence (wind) with or without discharge
* abdominal pain
* urgent need to open the bowels
* oily, fatty or liquid stools
* oily discharge from anus.
Normally, these symptoms disappear if you continue
treatment and keep to your recommended diet. These
symptoms are generally mild, occur at the beginning of
treatment, go away after a short period of time and are
particularly experienced after meals containing high
levels of fat.
Storage
Keep XENICAL where young children cannot reach it.
