Obezita 120 mg Capsule

Obezita 120 mg Capsule is a prescription weight-loss medicine that contains 120 mg of orlistat in each capsule. It belongs to the lipase inhibitor class and is used to help adults with overweight or obesity lose weight and keep weight off, along with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. Obezita 120 mg Capsule works in the gut rather than the brain, so it is not an appetite suppressant. This exact strength is the full-strength orlistat capsule used when a clinician decides medication support is appropriate for a patient’s weight-management plan.

How it works: Orlistat in Obezita 120 mg Capsule blocks some of the enzymes that break down dietary fat in your stomach and intestines. As a result, part of the fat you eat is not absorbed and leaves the body in the stool.

Obezita 120 mg Capsule is the standard prescription-strength orlistat capsule, not a lower-dose option. Because this is the full 120 mg strength, it is typically chosen for people a doctor has already assessed as needing prescription treatment, rather than for casual use or quick weight loss. Compared with any lower-strength orlistat products, Obezita 120 mg Capsule is intended to provide the full prescription dose per capsule.

• Weight loss in adults with overweight or obesity
• Help maintaining weight loss after initial loss
• Used with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet
• Adjunct to exercise and lifestyle changes

• Swallow each Obezita 120 mg Capsule whole with water.
• Take it during a meal or up to 1 hour after eating a fat-containing meal.
• If you skip a meal or the meal has no fat, skip that dose.
• Do not take extra capsules to make up for a missed dose.
• Follow a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet while using Obezita 120 mg Capsule.
• Keep fat intake spread across meals to help reduce stomach and bowel side effects.

Each Obezita 120 mg Capsule provides 120 mg of orlistat. The usual prescription schedule may be one capsule with each main meal that contains fat, up to 3 times daily, but the doctor decides the exact plan based on your weight-loss goals and health status. The maximum is generally 3 capsules in 24 hours.

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

• Urgent or increased bowel movements
• Loose stools or diarrhea
• Abdominal pain or cramping
• Stomach discomfort after fatty meals
• More frequent bowel symptoms at the 120 mg strength if meals are high in fat

• Use only under medical guidance, since Obezita 120 mg Capsule is a prescription-strength product.
• This medicine is not a quick fix; it works best with a low-fat diet and regular activity.
• Eating high-fat meals can increase oily stools, urgency, and leakage.
• People with chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis should not use orlistat.
• Tell your doctor if you have diabetes, kidney disease, gallbladder disease, or a history of pancreatitis.
• Vitamin A, D, E, and K absorption may be reduced, so a multivitamin may be needed at a separate time of day.
• Avoid use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless a clinician specifically instructs otherwise.

• Cyclosporine
• Warfarin and other anticoagulants
• Levothyroxine
