How does Xenical 120mg Work?
Xenical 120mg works in a unique way. The active ingredient, Xenical, attaches itself to some of the body’s natural enzymes that break down fat, so you don’t absorb it. This prevents some of the fat you eat from being absorbed.If you eat an excessive amount of fat or calories, the excess is stored as fat by the body, resulting in weight gain. When you eat fat, your body breaks it down into its simplest components so that it can be digested. The undigested fat will not be absorbed by the body and will be excreted in stools. This action will reduce the amount of calories absorbed by the body. But, Xenical 120mg does not block the absorption of calories from sugar and non-fat foods.
Xenical 120mg works in your digestive system to block about one-third of the fat in the food you eat from being digested. Enzymes in your digestive system, called lipases, help digest (or break down) fat. When taken with meals, Xenical attaches to the lipases and blocks them from breaking down some of the fat you have eaten. Xenical 120mg intereferes with the digestion and absorption of fat by blocking the enzyme in the gut which are responsible for fat digestion.The undigested fat cannot be absorbed and is eliminated in your bowel movements. By working this way, Xenical 120mg helps block about one-third of the fat in the foods you eat from being absorbed by your body.
Orlistat isn’t a stimulant or an appetite suppressant. It's formulated to work only in your digestive system and should not affect your heart rate, your brain or cause sleeplessness. The safety and efficacy of Xenical 120mg, has been established in more than 100 clinical studies with data from over 30,000 people.
Dosage
The usual adult and pediatric dose of Xenical for obesity is 120mg taken 3 times a day with meals containing fat. A dose may be taken during each meal or within an hour after having a meal. A dose may be skipped if a meal is skipped or if a meal does not contain fat. A meal must contain fat because Xenical will not work without fat in the diet. The fat content of the daily diet must not exceed 30% of the total daily calorie intake. A missed dose may be taken as soon as remembered. A dose may be skipped if it’s been more than an hour since the last meal. The dose must not be doubled just to make up for the missed dose.
