Health Care 1 Pharmacy (WA) 617-0358Health Care 3 Pharmacy (WA) 590-5anoiaOrlistat is used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. Orlistat is to be used along with a low-calorie diet and regular physical exercise. Obesity is a common condition associated with excessive body fat, which in turn increases the risk of other health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, certain cancers, and heart disease. Intake of more calories than you burn by exercise or daily activities results in obesity.
Orlistat contains Orlistat, which works in the small intestine and stomach and prevents the action of enzymes that break down fat, which is absorbed by the body. Orlistat decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, which makes the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thereby, Orlistat helps in weight loss.
Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor. Lipases are a natural� manufacture of food and are used to make substances, vitamins, and minerals. Orlistat works by blocking the enzyme lipase, which breaks down fat in the food making it into achenes. This leads to the over absorption of fat in the body, leading to an increase in the amount of fat in the body. Thus, Orlistat helps in weight loss.
Orlistat may also be used to treat certain health conditions, such as abdominal pain, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and gas with oily discharge. Orlistat may also be used to treat high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Orlistat may also be used to treat certain obesity-related conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and high blood pressure.
Orlistat should not be used by individuals with a history of heart problems, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or stroke. These conditions may also increase the risk of getting a heart attack, especially if you are a smoker, diabetics, or have a family history of heart disease. If you are already taking a medication called a beta-blocker or a diuretic, you should not take Orlistat while taking this medicine. It may also increase the risk of getting a stroke. To avoid this risk, it is important to follow a healthy exercise and healthy diet.
Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor, which works by blocking the action of a substance called lipase. Lipase is the enzyme produced by the pancreas that breaks down fat. Lipase is responsible for breaking down fats into glucose and then sucrose. It helps in breaking down fat in the stomach and small intestines. Orlistat reduces the amount of fat absorbed by the body and therefore helps in weight loss.
Orlistat may also be used to treat certain heart conditions, such as irregular heartbeats, sudden cardiac death, and high blood pressure. It may also be used to treat certain type 1 diabetes, especially when a diabetic is not being treated effectively.
