Who qualifies for Xenical

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Xenical is appropriate. Generally, Xenical is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 28 kg/m² or greater who have co-morbidities such as type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or high blood pressure, or a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater without co-morbidities. The doctor will look for a commitment to a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Contraindications, such as chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis, are also carefully considered during the review process.

What Xenical actually does (and doesn't do)

Xenical (Orlistat) works by preventing about one-third of the fat from the food you eat from being absorbed into your body. This unabsorbed fat is then passed out in your stools. It's important to understand that Xenical is not a magic bullet; it's a tool to support weight loss when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular exercise. It helps you lose weight gradually, and its effectiveness is directly linked to your dietary choices. It doesn't suppress appetite or directly burn fat, but rather reduces fat absorption.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Xenical can cause side effects. Common ones include oily spotting, gas with discharge, urgent bowel movements, fatty/oily stools, and increased defecation. These are often related to the amount of fat in your diet and can be managed by adhering to a low-fat eating plan. Less common but more serious side effects can include liver problems, severe stomach pain, or allergic reactions. You should stop taking Xenical and seek medical advice immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, dark urine, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or any signs of an allergic reaction like rash or swelling. Your prescribing doctor will provide full guidance on potential side effects and when to discontinue treatment.
