About Xenical

For some people, losing weight through dietary changes and exercise alone is a continual struggle. Obesity is a growing problem in the UK and in many other parts of the world, and it is a crippling disease that can affect every aspect of our lives. The health concerns and the poor self-image associated with it make weight loss and weight control two of the primary goals in achieving a long and healthy life. This has led to the development of prescription weight loss treatments like Xenical.

Xenical tablets contain the lipase inhibitor orlistat, and they work by reducing the amount of fat that the body absorbs during digestion. To achieve the desired results, this medicine should be combined with lifestyle and dietary changes.

Xenical Summary Information

The information provided in the summary table is for reference only. It is important to consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting any weight loss treatment, including Xenical.

What is the difference between Xenical and Orlistat?

Orlistat is the active ingredient in both medications. There is 120mg found in both, and they work to block fat in the same way. The main difference is that Xenical is the branded version, and orlistat is the generic form. As such, Xenical is fractionally more expensive due to its branded name.

Why choose Xenical?

This treatment doesn’t just help you lose weight; it can help you to live longer and have a higher quality of life. Obesity can make every new day seem like a challenge. Weight management is a must in order to protect ourselves from the many related diseases, and Xenical can help you to:

• Take control of your weight
• Regain your youthful figure
• Strive for a healthier body

Trials also showed that Xenical supported the maintenance of weight loss better than those trying to do it through a balanced lifestyle and willpower alone.

How effective Is Xenical?

The active ingredient in Xenical is designed to attach itself to the digestive enzymes, which break down fat to allow it to be absorbed into your body. When using Xenical, 30% of this fat is blocked, and as such, you begin to naturally lose more weight than simply using calorie control and exercise alone.

When researched for one year across five separate trials, the average amount of weight lost by those using Xenical was 13.4lb compared to those in the placebo trial who were using exercise and healthy eating alone. The placebo group lost an average of 5.8lb, meaning that Xenical assisted in over double the loss of a healthy lifestyle alone.

How does Xenical work?

Xenical works by inhibiting fat absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. Orlistat, which is the active ingredient in the tablets, is a lipase inhibitor and stops your body from taking in all the fat from your meals as free fatty acids. In turn, this makes it easier to lose weight. Bear in mind that eating food with a very high-fat content whilst taking Xenical can cause unpleasant gastrointestinal side effects, and as such, your meals should only contain 30% fat.

Alternatives to Xenical

For some people, Xenical may not work. It may even be suitable for some. In such cases, seeking alternatives for the drug is crucial.

Xenical is the brand name drug for Orlistat. Orlistat is the generic version of the drug, available in 120 mg Capsules for a much more affordable price. Not only this, but you can also get the over-the-counter generic Orlistat, which is a lower 60 mg dose. The 60 mg capsules are known as Alli Capsules. The Alli slimming tablets contain the same active ingredient as Xenical. However, it contains half the dosage. It is a good OTC alternative for Xenical.

Generic medicines, such as Orlistat, are basically copies of brand-name drugs – containing the same amount of the active ingredient, with the same strength as well as effects. However, the critical difference is that they are typically cheaper.
