Xenical
Orlistat
Prescription
Weight Loss Pills
Xenical
is a prescription only weight loss tablet and cannot be bought freely
over the counter or via the internet - if you do discover somewhere
that sells Xenical without prescription it is either fraudulent or
illegal.
Xenical
is not a weight loss solution for people who need only to shed a few
pounds. It is targeted primarly for the overweight who border on the
obese.
It
is highly unlikely that your doctor will prescribe the medication if
you do not fit into this criteria. If you have a Body Mass Index of 30
or greater you may be considered a suitable candidate. You can check
your Body Max Index (BMI) here
How
does Xenical Work
Excessive
amounts of fat and calories are stored in the body, this is
the obvious cause of weight gain. When fat is consumed it is
broken down by the body into the lowest common denominator so it can be
digested.
Xenical,
unlike other weight loss medications that effect the brains rationale
into fooling the stomach that it is full, works solely in the digestive
system and blocks approximately a third of the fat intake.
In the digestive
system there are enzymes called Lipases - these help to break down the
fat.
When
Xenical is taken with food it will attach itself to the lipasas and
stops them from digesting the food that you have eaten.
The
undigested fat can then pass through your body.
Is
Xenical Effective As A Weight Loss Pill
A
resounding yes. Xenical
is the slimming tablet of choice for most GP's and doctors. It has been
thoroughly and clinically tested and does not contain any serious side
effects. The only negatives are that it cannot purchased
freely and is only availbable via prescription and to the
obese. So a relatively small percentage of people who want to lose
weight enjoy the benefit.
Does
Xenical Contain Any Side Effects
Although
Xenical
does not contain any serious side effects some will experience unusual
bowel movements. This should not be cause for concern as this is a
byproduct of the enzymes blocking the fat intake allowing them to pass
naturally through your body.
Alternatives
To Xenical
There
are other products that work in the exact same way to Xenical
in so much as they are not appetite suppressants but rely on the fat
binding technique as explained above. Doctors and GP's are more
inclined to not
prescribe than prescribe this drug is, as we have learnt, aimed
primarily at the clinically overweight.
Alternatives
do exist though - please visit our diet

page for a summary of the recommended slimming or diet pills available

never exceed the stated dose - you will not
lose weight any quicker.
