Who qualifies for Xenical

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Xenical (Orlistat) is the right treatment. Generally, they consider adults who are overweight or obese, typically with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 28 or higher. Xenical is most effective when combined with a commitment to dietary changes and increased physical activity. It's not suitable for everyone; certain medical conditions or medications may make it inappropriate. The doctor will thoroughly review your full medical history, current medications, and any pre-existing conditions to ensure your safety and the treatment's effectiveness.

What Xenical actually does (and doesn't do)

Xenical, also known by its generic name Orlistat, works by blocking about 30% of the fat you consume from being absorbed by your body. This unabsorbed fat then passes out in your stool. It acts as a supportive tool for weight management when you combine it with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. Xenical is not a miracle cure or a rapid solution; it works best as part of a broader lifestyle change. You can expect gradual weight loss, typically 5-10% of your body weight over several months, provided you adhere to the recommended diet and exercise plan. It helps you manage your fat intake more effectively, but your active participation in healthy eating habits is crucial for results.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Xenical can cause side effects. The most common ones are directly related to how it works: oily stools, increased bowel movements, fecal urgency, and gas with oily spotting. These are often indications that the medication is working and are usually mild and temporary, especially if you follow a low-fat diet. More serious side effects are rare. Always discuss any persistent or concerning side effects with your Hi-Doctor physician. If you experience severe abdominal pain, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin or eyes, stop taking Xenical immediately and seek medical attention. Your doctor will provide guidance on when to stop treatment based on your progress and tolerability.
