Orlos is a weight management medication containing the active ingredient orlistat, which works by reducing the absorption of fat from the food you eat. This supports weight loss by making it easier to shed excess weight.
It is intended to be used alongside a healthy lifestyle plan, enhancing the results of a balanced diet and regular exercise. For every 2kg you lose through diet and activity, Orlos can help you lose an additional 1kg.
As with all medications, side effects are possible. The most common include sudden or more frequent bowel movements, and soft stools. Not everyone experiences these, and for many people, they improve after a few weeks as the body adjusts to the treatment.
