alli

orlistat

GlaxoSmithKline completed an agreement with Roche (who market prescription orlistat 120 mg - Xenical) that allows the company to seek regulatory approval for orlistat 60 mg as the first licensed non-prescription weight loss product. alli (orlistat 60 mg) was launched in June 2007 as the only approved weight loss aid available without prescription.

Just as Xenical, alli contains a drug called Orlistat. In really simple terms, Orlistat absorbs the fat from foods you eat every day.

alli keeps your intestines from absorbing fat from food, therefore it's main side effect is runny stools, especially after a high-fat meal. alli can also keep your body from taking in fat-soluble vitamins, so it is recommended taking a multi-vitamins while using it.

The alli program includes alli capsules and myalliplan, an individually tailored, online action plan to help you lose weight gradually.
