Who qualifies for Xenical

Our EU-licensed doctors assess every case individually. They look for patients who meet specific criteria for Xenical (Orlistat) treatment. Xenical is typically prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with co-existing weight-related conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. The doctor reviews your full medical history to ensure there are no contraindications that would make Orlistat unsuitable or unsafe for you.

What Xenical actually does (and doesn't do)

Xenical (Orlistat) helps you lose weight by preventing about one-third of the fat from the food you eat from being absorbed by your body. It works in your digestive system by blocking enzymes that break down fat. This unabsorbed fat then passes out of your body in your stools. Xenical is most effective when used alongside a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. It is not a quick fix or a substitute for healthy lifestyle changes, but a tool to support your weight management journey. Realistic weight loss with Xenical, combined with diet and exercise, typically ranges from 5% to 10% of your initial body weight over 6 to 12 months.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Xenical can cause side effects. Most common side effects relate to the digestive system and include oily spotting, gas with oily discharge, urgent bowel movements, and fatty or oily stools. These effects are usually mild and often lessen as your body adjusts to the medication and you adhere to a low-fat diet. Rarely, more serious side effects can occur, such as liver problems. You should stop taking Xenical and contact a doctor immediately if you experience severe stomach pain, persistent nausea/vomiting, dark urine, or yellowing eyes/skin. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor.
