Has anyone had any experience taking the anti obesity drug Xenical (Orlistat)? |
I would like to know if anyone has taken the anti obesity drug Xenical (also known as Orlistat). How did you find it? Was it effective in helping you lose weight? What sort of side effects did you have? Any information on this would be greatfully recieved. I took if for about a week but had to stop. Even though I cut down on the fats I was eating I still had the gastric upsets ( read that as nevr go more than 10 feet from a rest room!). My friend took it and had none of the side effects and lost almost 3 stone without too much difficulty. So it really is different for different people....; ur a little sweety and i shall be watching like a hawk for the answers. thanks. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx... A girl I work with was just talking about that before she got off. I am not sure, I am just kinda skeptical about drugs that help you lose weight. They have got to be taking other things away along with the weight. But whatever you do, just do some research and make sure it is safe, good luck :) Took it for about a week, If you could stay home all day it would be great. If you cant you better be near a toilet don't take any type of medicines for obesity it is very very harmful for body.

Side effects are most severe within the first year of therapy. Because orlistat's main effect is to prevent dietary fat from being absorbed, the fat is excreted unchanged in the feces and so the stool may become oily or loose. Increased flatulence is also common. Bowel movements may become frequent or urgent. Rare occurrence of fecal incontinence have been seen in clinical trials. To minimize these effects, foods with high fat content should be avoided. The absorption of fat-soluble vitamins are inhibited by the use of orlistat. A multivitamin tablet containing these vitamins (D, E, A and beta-carotene) should be taken once a day, at least 2 hours before or after taking the drug. Despite claims that orlistat increases the risk of breast cancer amongst clinicial trial participants, there is evidence to suggest that the introduction of specific varied preparations containing Orlistat can induce cell death in tumor cells and block their growth. [6] A recent animal study addressed a connection orlistat shares with aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in the colon, which is believed to be one of the earliest precursors of colon cancer plus you get a side effect called "tangoing" when you go to the loo its a runny orange poo as its strpping your stomach lineing and if your not at the loo in 2 sec`s of needed its time too change the underware |
