Who qualifies for Orlistat

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Orlistat is appropriate for you. Typically, Orlistat is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. It may also be considered for individuals with a BMI of 27 or higher who have weight-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. Contraindications, such as chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis, will also be carefully reviewed. The doctor makes the final decision based on your individual medical profile.

What Orlistat actually does (and doesn't do)

Orlistat works by partially blocking the absorption of dietary fat in your gut. It inhibits lipase, an enzyme that breaks down fats, meaning about 30% of the fat you eat passes through your digestive system undigested. This reduces your calorie intake and helps with weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. Orlistat is not a 'magic pill'; it supports your efforts to eat healthier and be more active. You can expect gradual weight loss over several months, typically 5-10% of your initial body weight within 6-12 months, provided you commit to lifestyle changes. It doesn't eliminate all fat absorption, nor does it work without dietary adjustments.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Orlistat has potential side effects, mostly related to its mechanism of action. The most common ones are gastrointestinal: oily stools, flatulence with discharge, urgent bowel movements, and increased stool frequency. These are often a sign that you've consumed too much fat and can be managed by sticking to a low-fat diet. In rare cases, more serious side effects like liver problems can occur. It's important to stop taking Orlistat and contact a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor in your private, RGPD-compliant chat.
