Ishape 60 mg Capsule

Ishape 60 mg Capsule is an oral weight-loss medicine that contains 60 mg of orlistat in each capsule. It belongs to the gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor class, which helps reduce the absorption of dietary fat from meals. Ishape 60 mg Capsule is used as part of a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet for adults with overweight or obesity who need medical weight management. Because it works in the gut rather than the brain, it does not act as a stimulant.

How it works: Orlistat in Ishape 60 mg Capsule blocks some of the fat-digesting enzymes in your stomach and intestine, so part of the fat you eat is not absorbed and leaves the body in stool. Because it works inside the digestive tract, the capsule must be taken with food to match the meal it is intended to affect.

Ishape 60 mg Capsule is a lower-strength orlistat capsule that may be chosen for adults who have been assessed by a clinician and need a less intensive starting option than higher-strength prescription orlistat products. Compared with higher strengths, this capsule is typically used with meals to support weight-loss efforts while still allowing the doctor to tailor treatment to tolerance, diet, and goals. It is not meant for unsupervised use, and the 60 mg strength is still a medically directed dose.

• Weight management in adults with overweight or obesity
• Support for a low-calorie, low-fat diet
• Reduction of dietary fat absorption
• Adjunct treatment when lifestyle changes alone are not enough

• Swallow Ishape 60 mg Capsule whole with water.
• Take it with a meal that contains fat, or within 1 hour after the meal.
• If you skip a meal or a meal has no fat, do not take the capsule for that dose.
• Keep meals low in fat to reduce greasy stools, urgency, and stomach upset.
• Do not open, chew, or crush the capsule unless your prescriber specifically tells you to.
• Follow the exact schedule given by your doctor; do not take extra capsules to make up for a missed dose.

Each Ishape 60 mg Capsule provides 60 mg of orlistat per capsule. Depending on the treatment plan, it may be taken with meals up to 3 times daily, but the exact dose and duration are decided by your doctor. The usual maximum for this strength is 3 capsules in 24 hours unless your prescriber gives different instructions.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Orlistat may include:

• Oily or fatty stools
• Gas with oily discharge
• Urgent or more frequent bowel movements
• Loose stools or diarrhea
• Stomach pain or cramping
• Fecal spotting or difficulty controlling bowel movements
• These effects are more likely if the meal is high in fat

• Use only under a clinician’s direction for weight management.
• Avoid high-fat meals, because they can worsen bowel side effects with Ishape 60 mg Capsule.
• If you take diabetes medicine, blood sugar may improve and your doses may need adjustment.
• If you take warfarin or other anticoagulants, monitoring may be needed because vitamin K absorption can change.
• People with chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis should not use orlistat products unless a doctor specifically approves.
• Pregnant people should not use Ishape 60 mg Capsule for weight loss.
• This medicine can reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, so a multivitamin may be recommended at a different time of day.
