Orligal Vegan (orlistat 120 mg)

Orligal Vegan, also known as ORLIMAX 120MG CAPSULE for vegetarian, falls into the category of medications known as anti-obesity drugs, which are designed to combat obesity and facilitate weight loss. It is recommended to use Orligal alongside a low-calorie diet and regular physical activity. Obesity is a widespread condition linked to excess body fat, which can lead to various health issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, certain cancers, and heart disease. The underlying cause of obesity is the consumption of more calories than one burns through exercise or daily activities.

ORLIMAX 120MG CAPSULE contains Orlistat, which acts in the small intestine and stomach, inhibiting the action of enzymes responsible for breaking down fat that the body absorbs. As a result, Orligal reduces fat absorption from the food intake. The unabsorbed fat passes through the digestive system and is expelled in the feces, preventing the body from utilizing it as an energy source or converting it into fat tissue. This process aids in weight loss.

To ensure the effectiveness of Orligal, follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and continue using it for the recommended duration based on your medical condition. Some individuals may experience mild side effects such as soft stools, sudden bowel movements, flatulence (gas), with or without oily spotting, oily or fatty stools, stomach pain, stool incontinence (involuntary leakage of stools), and runny or liquid stools. In most cases, these side effects resolve gradually and do not require medical attention. However, if they persist, consult your doctor for guidance.

If you are allergic to ORLIMAX 120MG CAPSULE or any other medications, inform your doctor. Avoid taking Orligal if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy, as it may harm the fetus. The excretion of ORLIMAX 120MG CAPSULE in human milk is not known, so breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before using it. This medication is not recommended for children below 18 years of age, as its safety and effectiveness have not been established. It is advisable to take a multivitamin containing fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) at bedtime while using ORLIMAX 120MG CAPSULE, as it may reduce the absorption of certain vitamins in the body.
