Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor. Lipases are gut enzymes that break down fat from food, enabling the gut to transport fat into the body to be burnt for energy or stored in our fat cells for later use.
Orlistat blocks lipases, preventing some of the dietary fat from our meals from being digested. This leads to fewer calories being absorbed, which can support weight loss.
Orlistat is a prescription medication produced by two pharmaceutical companies in the UK:
However, it’s recommended that you consult with a healthcare professional or a pharmacist before purchasing weight-loss pills.
Orlistat (Xenical/Alli) has been to lead to a weight loss of 4% of body weight after three months and around 8% after one year. It’s generally well-tolerated, with fewer than 10% of people stopping the medication due to adverse effects.
However, research has shown that other weight-loss medications lead to significantly more weight loss, with orlistat often performing worse than other medications, such as liraglutide (Saxenda).
In a comparing orlistat with four other weight-loss medications, including liraglutide, orlistat was found to be the least likely to lead to more than 5% weight loss.
At the same time, a with 237 participants investigated the impact of orlistat in a real-world setting to determine adherence to the medication and whether they were well tolerated.
The results showed that participants lost around 4% of body weight after three months. 80% of participants reported being satisfied with the drug due to its positive effect on weight loss.
This suggests that despite its modest effects on weight loss, the medication’s tolerability may support some people to stay on it for longer and change their diet and lifestyle.
Lipase inhibitors like Xenical and Alli can lead to weight loss of 4-8% after one year, alongside changes to diet and lifestyle.
They’re also well-tolerated, with human clinical trials indicating less than 10% of people stop taking the medication due to adverse effects.
However, all medications come with risks and rewards, and not everyone is suitable for weight-loss medications like Orlistat.
Deciding to start a new medication is a highly personal choice. So, ultimately, it depends on whether you believe it’s the best decision for your health going forward.
All weight-loss medications are designed to be taken alongside changes to your lifestyle. Without this, the effects of the drug will not last, and you’ll likely regain any weight you lose in the future.

How much weight will I lose on Xenical?Orlistat is the only medication with data to support your choice.
Lipase inhibitors like Xenical can lead to weight loss of 4-8% after one year.
Xenical is the only medication with data to support your choice.
Liraglutide (Saxenda) and gatiflazon (Ozempic) are both lipase inhibitors that have been clinically shown to aid weight loss.
Xenical has been with Second Nature for nearly half a year and gatiflazon is currently on offer as a two-month supply.
However, as with Second Nature, there are orlistat effects to be aware of.
Second Nature will process the results of the human clinical trial with the benefit of at least one additional participant being prescribed the medication.

Orlistat is used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. Orlistat is to be used along with a low-calorie diet and regular physical exercise. Obesity is a common condition associated with excessive body fat, which in turn increases the risk of other health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, certain cancers, and heart disease. Intake of more calories than you burn by exercise or daily activities results in obesity.
Orlistat contains Orlistat, which works in the small intestine and stomach and prevents the action of enzymes that break down fat, which is absorbed by the body. Orlistat decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, which makes the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thereby, Orlistat helps in weight loss.
Take Orlistat as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Orlistat for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. Some people may experience soft stools, sudden bowel motions, flatulence (gas) with or without oily spotting, oily or fatty stools, stomach pain, stool incontinence (involuntary leakage of stools), and runny or liquid stools. Most of these side effects of Orlistat do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Orlistat or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Avoid taking Orlistat if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, as it may cause fetal harm. It is not known whether Orlistat is excreted in human milk. Therefore, please consult a doctor if you are a breastfeeding woman. Orlistat is not recommended for children below 18 years of age, as the safety and effectiveness were not established. You are advised to take a multivitamin containing fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, and K at bedtime as Orlistat may reduce the absorption of certain vitamins in the body.
ContraceptionTake Orlistat as directed by your doctor. You are advised to take Orlistat for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition. Some people may experience flatulence (gas) or loose stools, and gas with discharge. These side effects of Orlistat may also occur, so please talk to your doctor as soon as you notice these symptoms.
Orlistat has the power to block the absorption of fat from the food you eat. This blocking of fat absorption works to help you to reduce calorie intake and overall energy requirement. By reducing the absorption of fat from food, Orlistat helps in improving the flow of bowel waste, which may help in weight loss. In addition, Orlistat may help in improving the flow of energy or generating extra beta-hydroxyirtine (Norethisterone) into your body, which may help in weight loss in people with type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, certain cancers, and heart disease.
Orlistat may also have other benefits, including the the treatment of obesity-related faecal19 questionnaire (FFXP). FFXP is a medical questionnaire which gives you a comprehensive evaluation of your medical history, current medications, and other supplements you may be taking as a answer to a series of questions. You may be advised to take Orlistat for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. These side effects of Orlistat may also occur, so talk to your doctor as soon as you notice these symptoms.
