What Is Orlos

Orlos is the generic version of the nonprescription weight loss capsule, Alli. The medication contains a lower amount of the active ingredient, orlistat, compared to the prescription drug Xenical.

Orlos is a daily pill taken before or with three main meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can also take it an hour after you eat.

For every 1 kg you lose through diet and exercise, the weight loss pill can help you lose half a kg more. Expect to lose at least 5% of your body weight within three months when you take Orlos as part of a healthy diet and active lifestyle. 

How Do Orlos Weight Loss Tablets Work?

Orlos 60mg contains the active ingredient Orlistat. It’s a lipase inhibitor that reduces the amount of dietary fat your body absorbs by approximately one-quarter (25%).

Orlistat binds to gastric and pancreatic lipase enzymes in your stomach and small intestine. This prevents the enzymes from breaking down fats into absorbable fatty acids, which would otherwise enter the bloodstream to be stored. The unabsorbed fat travels through the digestive system, and you excrete it as stool.

Orlos (Orlistat 60mg) Eligibility Requirements

Orlos is available without a prescription, but healthcare providers usually recommend it to people who meet the following criteria:

• Body Mass Index (BMI): 28 or above.
• Age: Must be 18 years of age or older.
• Lifestyle Commitment: You must be willing to commit to a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular exercise. 

Who Isn’t Suitable?

The following people should avoid taking Orlistat:

• Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Orlistat can cause harm to the fetus. Also, there’s no safety information on the medication during nursing, so doctors advise avoiding it.
• Chronic Malabsorption Syndrome: Disorders such as Crohn's disease and celiac disease can worsen with orlistat, increasing the risk of malnutrition and vitamin deficiency.
• Cholestasis: A liver condition where the normal flow of bile from the liver is obstructed. It affects fat digestion, which can cause gastrointestinal issues when you take Orlos.
• Organ Transplant Recipients: People who’ve had organ transplants usually take immunosuppressive medications such as ciclosporin to prevent organ rejection. Orlistat reduces the concentration of the medicine, which can trigger rejection.
• Allergies: Hypersensitivity or severe allergic reaction to orlistat can be life-threatening.
