What is Orlistat?

Active Ingredients: Orlistat

Orlistat Capsules are a drug used to aid weight loss or reduce the risk of weight gain. This drug is typically used in combination with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise program. It is also used to promote weight loss in overweight people with metabolic risk factors, such as hypertension or diabetes.

Orlistat is classified as a lipase inhibitor. The active ingredient works by inhibiting the action of pancreatic lipase, which is an enzyme that breaks down fats in the intestines. In the absence of this enzyme, fats from the diet are excreted undigested without being absorbed by the digestive system.

AdvaCare Pharma is a producer and exporter of Orlistat Capsules. This medicine is produced in our GMP-certified facilities in China, India, and the USA. These factories are regularly audited to ensure they comply with health, safety, and environmental standards.
