Orlistat (marketed under the trade name Xenical by Roche) is a drug used to treat obesity.
The over-the- counter preparation of Orlistat which has a lower dosage than prescription Xenical is branded as Alli by GlaxoSmithKline.

In February, 2007 Alli (Orlistat) was approved by FDA as an over-the-counter treatment for overweight adults.

When you take Alli along with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet, you can lose 50% more weight than dieting alone. For example, instead of losing 10 pounds with diet alone, you can lose 15 pounds with the Alli program.
Most weight loss occurs in the first 6 months.

Alli is safe - it works in your digestive system, not in your heart or brain. It will not cause jitters, sleeplessness, or a racing heart.

Alli – How does it work?

Alli blocks about 25% of the fat you eat. Typically, enzymes in your intestines break down fat from food so your body can absorb the fat. But, the active ingredient in Alli attaches to some of these enzymes and prevents them from digesting about a quarter of the fat you eat. Because undigested fat can't be absorbed, it passes out of your body instead of turning into calories.

Alli - How to Take

Recommended dose is one 60mg capsule with each main meal containing fat.

If you miss a dose of Alli, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule.

Do not take 2 doses at once.

Your daily intake of fat should be divided evenly over 3 meals.

Eating a meal high in fat while taking Alli increases the risk of side effects involving the stomach and intestines.
