When Does Orlistat Start Working and Best Value Options
How Quickly Does Orlistat Begin Working?
Orlistat starts working from your first dose by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system. This means it immediately begins blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed. However, weight management support typically becomes more noticeable over several weeks when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Individual responses vary, and your prescriber will assess whether treatment is appropriate for your specific circumstances.
