About
Orlistat (Alli, Xenical) is used as an aid to help you lose weight. The medicine prevents the digestion of some of the fat you eat. Fats that are not digested cannot be absorbed and therefore do not contribute calories. To give the greatest weight loss, orlistat must be used with a weight-reduction diet.
Alli from GlaxoSmithKline comes in packs of 120 capsules, where each capsule contains 60 mg of substance (Orlistat).

Usage and Dosage of Alli from GlaxoSmithKline
Orlistat prevents the absorption of some of the fat you eat. Therefore, you should take it during the meal or within 1 hour of eating. If you occasionally miss a meal or eat a meal that contains no fat, you should skip the dose of orlistat.
Because orlistat may decrease the amount of some vitamins that your body can absorb from food, you will need to take a multivitamin supplement once a day. Take the vitamin supplement at least 2 hours before or after taking orlistat.
When using orlistat, your diet should contain no more than 30% of calories as fat. More fat in your diet will increase the side effects of this medicine. Your diet should be nutritionally balanced, and your daily intake of fat, carbohydrates, and protein should be distributed over three main meals.
Dosing—The dose of orlistat will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of orlistat. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
- For oral dosage form (capsules):
- For treatment of obesity:
- Adults—120 milligrams (mg) three times a day with meals containing fat.
- Children—Use and dose must be determined by your doctor.
Missed dose— If you miss a dose of orlistat after a fat-containing meal, skip that dose. Wait until your next meal, and take the medicine on your regular schedule. Do not double doses.
