alli Orlistat Weight Loss Capsules, 60 mg, 120-Count Refill Pack

alli is a nonprescription orlistat weight-loss aid for adults, supplied as 60 mg capsules in a 120-capsule refill pack.

• Orlistat blocks absorption of about 25% of the fat you eat — reducing the calories absorbed from that fat.
• Made for overweight adults aged 18 and older — use it with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet.
• Refill format with up to a 40-day supply — intended for people who have already used alli and purchased the starter pack.
• Diet and exercise remain the starting points — alli may help you lose more weight than diet and exercise alone.
• Acts in the digestive tract with minimal absorption into the bloodstream — the product data notes little to no effect on the cardiovascular and central nervous systems.

alli is designed for adults working toward weight loss through changes to eating habits and activity. Its active ingredient, orlistat, works in the digestive tract rather than serving as a replacement for a reduced-calorie eating plan or exercise. Follow the capsule label directions, and read the enclosed brochure for important product information.

How does alli help with weight loss?

Orlistat inhibits lipase, an enzyme involved in breaking down dietary fat. It binds to specific fat-digesting enzymes, so some of the fat eaten with meals is not absorbed and passes through the digestive system. The calories in that unabsorbed fat are therefore not used by the body. For every 5 pounds lost through diet and exercise, alli may help you lose 2 to 3 more.

• The weight-loss aid is intended for both women and men.
• Diet and exercise are the foundation of a weight-loss program.

Who is the 120-capsule refill pack for?

This refill pack is made for people already using alli who have previously purchased the starter pack. It contains 120 capsules and a “Read Me First” brochure, with up to a 40-day supply. The brochure provides additional important information to read before use.

• Active ingredient: orlistat, 60 mg per capsule.
• Use is intended for overweight adults aged 18 years and older.

What should I know about diet and possible side effects?

Use alli alongside a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. Depending on gender, weight and activity level, the recommended daily diet ranges from 1,200 to 1,800 calories and 40 to 60 grams of fat; the Companion Guide can help determine individual calorie and fat targets. Eating a meal with too much fat, especially when first starting, may lead to gastrointestinal effects because some dietary fat passes through undigested.

• Possible diet-related effects include oily spotting, loose stools and more frequent bowel movements that may be difficult to control.
• These effects tend to occur early as the body adjusts to the product and diet, and may subside with continued use.
• Almost 50% of people taking alli do not experience diet-related side effects.

Following the recommended low-fat eating plan can help reduce the likelihood of these effects. Even when gastrointestinal effects do not occur, alli continues to block absorption of about 25% of dietary fat. Stop taking alli and ask a doctor if severe or continuous abdominal pain occurs, as it may signal a serious medical condition.

alli is suited to adults aged 18 and older who are already using the product and want a refill to continue a weight-loss plan built around a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise. This refill contains 120 orlistat 60 mg capsules and a “Read Me First” brochure.
