Description:

Orlistat is a member of the class of pharmaceuticals known as anti-obesity drugs. It is used to help persons (18 and older) who are overweight and have a body mass index (BMI) of 28 or above lose weight. When there is an imbalance between energy consumption and energy expenditure over time, it leads to increased energy storage, which is what causes obesity. A portion of the fat you consume is blocked by Orlistat, preventing your body from absorbing it.

Pharmacology

A powerful, targeted, and long-acting lipase inhibitor is Slimfast. By establishing a covalent link with the active serine site of gastric and pancreatic lipases, it exerts its therapeutic effect in the lumen of the stomach and upper small intestine. Hence, dietary lipids in the form of triglycerides cannot be hydrolyzed by the inactivated enzyme into absorbable free fatty acids and monoglycerides. Due to the inability of undigested triglycerides to be absorbed, a calorie deficit develops, which is advantageous for weight management. Orlistat does not need to be absorbed into the body for the action, therefore. Orlistat inhibits dietary fat absorption by around 30% at the recommended therapeutic dosage of 120 mg three times per day.

Dosage & Administration of Slimfast 120

The recommended dose of Orlistat is one 120 mg capsule to be taken immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal. If a meal is missed or contains no fat the dose of Orlistat should be omitted. Doses of Orlistat above 120 mg three times daily have not been shown to provide additional benefits. The effect of Orlistat results in an increase in fecal fat 24-48 hours after dosing. Upon discontinuation of therapy, fecal fat content usually returns to pretreatment levels within 48-72 hours.

The safety & efficacy of Orlistat were investigated in clinical studies lasting up to 4 years. The recommended dose of Orlistat for adolescents is as same as for adults.
