Introduction:

Orlicure 120 (Orlistat 120mg Capsule) contains Orlistat 120 mg, a gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor. It helps prevent the digestion and absorption of about one-third of the fat consumed in food. This undigested fat is then passed naturally through the stool, helping reduce calorie intake and support weight loss.

Orlistat is recommended as part of a comprehensive weight-management plan, which includes:

A reduced-calorie, low-fat diet
Regular physical activity
Medical guidance

It may also help reduce the risk of weight-related health problems such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure when combined with lifestyle changes.

Note: This medicine should be used only under healthcare supervision.
