Xenical (generic name: orlistat) is a diet treatment drug that inhibits the absorption of about 30% of dietary fat and expels it from the body as feces.
Since it is not a medication that suppresses appetite, it is also recommended for those who "don't want to reduce their food intake" or "often have greasy meals."
It can also be used in combination with GLP-1 receptor agonists, SGLT2 inhibitors, and metformin, and is chosen by those who want to further enhance their diet effects.
Xenical supports weight management through an action different from other medications: it inhibits fat absorption.
Recommended for:
・Those who frequently eat greasy foods or dine out
・Those who do not want to suppress their appetite
・Those who want to use it in combination with GLP-1 or SGLT2
・Those who find it difficult to lose weight through diet restrictions alone
While individual results may vary, continuing for 2 to 3 months or more in conjunction with diet and exercise therapy makes it easier to experience the effects.
