Xenical Diet Pills

Xenical is a medicine containing the active substance orlistat. Xenical is used together with dieting for the treatment of obese (very overweight) patients with a body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 30 kg per square meter, or overweight patients (BMI greater than or equal to 28 kg/m) who are at risk of illness because of their weight.
Xenical diet pill is given as one capsule taken with water just before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal. If a meal is missed or contains no fat, Xenical should not be taken. The patient should be on a diet in which about 30% of the calories come from fat, and which is rich in fruit and vegetables. The food in the diet should be spread over three main meals. Treatment with Xenical should be stopped after 12 weeks if patients have been unable to lose at least 5% of their body weight since the start of treatment.
