What Is Orlos

Orlos is the generic version of the popular nonprescription weight loss capsule Alli 60mg. It contains a lower amount of the active ingredient orlistat compared to the prescription medication Xenical 120mg.

The orlistat in Orlos capsules blocks enzymes that normally digest fat, preventing approximately one third of the fat consumed in meals from being absorbed into the body. This undigested fat is then removed from the system in bowel movements.

We know life gets busy, but taking Orlos tablets consistently—either with your meals or up to an hour afterwards—can make a real difference in your weight loss journey. For every 4lbs (2kg) you lose by dieting, Orlos can help you lose another 2lbs (1kg). You should expect to lose at least 5% of your body weight within 3 months.

When taken as part of a nutritious, reduced-calorie diet plan and active lifestyle, Orlos can help overweight and obese adults reach a healthier weight more readily.

How Does Orlos Work

Orlos tablets contain the ingredient Orlistat, which is called a lipase inhibitor. Orlistat aids weight loss by reducing the amount of dietary fat that is absorbed by the body by up to a third.

Orlistat interferes with the way fat is digested by blocking the enzymes in the stomach from breaking down the fat so it cannot be absorbed into the bloodstream and then stored. This fat is then passed out of the body in the stool, helping you to lose weight.
