Description |
|
alli™
is the only FDA approved, over-the-counter weight loss
product. But it’s more than just a pill. It’s
an innovative weight loss program. The pill works by
preventing your body from absorbing some of the fat
you eat. |
| What
makes alli™ different? |
FDA
approval makes alli different. And the customized plan
was designed for use with alli capsules to give you
the support you need to succeed with weight loss. With
your hard work and alli, you can lose about 50% more
weight than with just dieting alone. That means if you
could lose 10 pounds through dieting, you could lose
15 with 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. |
| Does
Alli have side effects? |
The
main side effect occurs when you eat a meal with too
much fat when taking Alli. If so much fat is blocked
that your stool can't absorb it, you might have side
effects. Because they are not harmful, we call them
"treatment effects." These include loose or
more frequent stools, an urgent need to go to the bathroom,
or gas with an oily discharge. The excess fat that passes
out of your body is in no way harmful. In fact, you
may recognize it as something that looks like oil on
top of a pizza. And these treatment effects can be lessened
if you stick to reduced-calorie, low-fat meals that
average 15 grams of fat per meal. |
| Warnings |
Do
not use if you have had an organ transplant. Orlistat
interferes with the medicines used to prevent transplant
rejection. Do not use if you are taking cyclosporine,
have been diagnosed with problems absorbing food or
are not overweight. |
| Ask
a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are taking
warfarin (blood thinning medicine), taking medicine
for diabetes or thryoid disease, or other weight loss
products. Your medication dose may need to be adjusted.
Ask a doctor before use if you have ever had gallbladder
problems, kidney stones, or pancreatitis.
