Who should take Xenical®?
Xenical® is indicated for individuals who are obese (BMI over 30) or who are overweight (BMI between 25 and 30) and have or are at risk for any of the medical conditions which are related to their weight or body fat, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, or hypertension.

How is Xenical® different from other diet medications?
With the exception of Xenical®, all of the current prescription drugs for weight loss act on the brain to reduce appetite. You eat less, you lose weight - but at a price. In order to get to the brain, these drugs must enter the blood stream.Therefore, these drugs may have side effects (central nervous system and cardiovascular), ranging from minor to severe and are indicated only for short term use. But, most important, these drugs do little or nothing to help people change their eating habits or lifestyles.Therefore, when they stop taking the drugs, the weight is quickly regained. Xenical®, on the other hand, does not enter the blood stream, nor does it act on the brain. Xenical® does not reduce appetite. It simply blocks the digestion and absorption of fat and helps you to control your fat intake.

Could I become addicted to Xenical®?
No. Because Xenical® does not act on the brain, it is totally non-addictive.

|

|
When I take Xenical®, can I eat whatever I want?
Yes and No. For the most part, you can eat all the kinds of foods you enjoy, but only in smaller amounts. It is recommended that Xenical® be taken in conjunction with a diet that is moderately reduced in total calories (about 20% - or 600 less calories per day) and reduced in fat. Please consult your physician or dietitian for further advice. The daily intake of fat should be distributed over three main meals throughout the day. These restrictions are far less than most weight loss diets and, therefore, are much easier to follow.

Do I have to follow a specific diet?

If Xenical® blocks fat, does it reduce cholesterol as well?
