Description

What is Alli?

Alli is made up of orlistat and is a lipase inhibitor. This is a pill, usually blue in color, used as a weight loss aid. The generic version of Alli, orlistat, is available for purchase in 60mg tablets.

Orlistat is used to help struggling adults (over the age of 18) trying to lose weight by decreasing the amount of dietary fat absorbed in your intestines by approximately 25% - 30%. This also reduces the number of calories that enter your body, as they come with these now unabsorbed fats. In order for this medication to be effective, it must be combined with a reduced-calorie and low-fat diet.

Always follow directions given to you by your doctor. Never take more or less of a dosage than directed

Take this tablet by mouth 3 times a day

Do not eat for up to one hour after taking Alli, and if you do, ensure it is a low fat meal.

You will also likely be taking vitamins while taking Alli; do not take these at the same time.
