Useful Information

The team of experts at Menschem have put together some useful information and the answers to frequently asked questions.

What is the difference between branded products such as Xenical and generic capsules such as Orlistat?

Essentially the medication is similar. Orlistat is the name of the drug that is contained in Xenical capsules. Xenical is just a popular brand of orlistat, however other manufacturers make the same drug in a tablet at a much cheaper price. Pharmaceutically there should be no difference.

How effective is the treatment?

Orlistat reduces the absorption of fats from your diet therefore, it reduces your calorie intake. With a healthy diet you may lose up to 2kg a month.

What are the very common side effects of Orlistat?

Very common side effects include; headache, abdominal pain/discomfort, urgent or increased need to open the bowels, flatulence (wind) with discharge, oily discharge, oily or fatty stools, liquid stools, low blood sugar levels (experienced by some people with type 2 diabetes). Please click here to read the patient information leaflet for a full list of side effects that you may encounter whilst taking this medication.

How do I take Orlistat?

Take one capsule up to three times daily. It is important to note that by taking more than the recommended dose, it has not been proven to increase weight loss. We also recommend you take multivitamins with the treatment. As you are not absorbing the full amount of fat in your diet, fat-soluble vitamins may not be absorbed.

What is the treatment doesn't work?

If Champix does not work please contact your local GP.
