Description

Orlimax Tablet contains Orlistat as its main ingredient, a weight management medicine that works by reducing the absorption of dietary fats in the body. It is usually prescribed to overweight or obese patients, especially when lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise alone are insufficient to achieve weight loss. By preventing fat absorption, it helps reduce calorie intake, thereby promoting weight reduction and improving metabolic health.

Uses:

• Aids in weight loss in obese or overweight individuals

• Helps in maintaining weight after initial weight loss

• Reduces the risk of obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and heart disease

• Supports long-term weight management when combined with a low-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity

Side Effects:

Most side effects are related to the digestive system due to unabsorbed fat. These may include:

• Oily or fatty stools, increased bowel movements

• Gas with discharge, abdominal pain, bloating, or diarrhea

• Rarely, headache, fatigue, or mild skin rashes

• Rare but serious: liver problems (yellowing of skin/eyes, dark urine) or severe allergic reactions

Precautions:

Take with meals containing fat. Follow a calorie-controlled, low-fat diet. Not recommended for patients with chronic malabsorption or liver disease.
