A new way to lose weight with virtually no side effects! Xenical is an FDA approved pill that helps you block up to one third of the fats you eat from foods. By attaching itself to natural digestive enzymes, Xenical stops fat from being broken down and absorbed into the body. Xenical makes dieting almost three times as effective. In clinical studies, patients taking Xenical lost an average of 19 pounds per year while those on diet alone lost 5.8 pounds.
Side Effects: Gas with oily discharge, increased numbers of bowel movements, urgent need to perform bowel movements, and/or inability to control them.
Suggested Use: Xenical should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet with no more than 30% of the calories coming from fat. The normal recommended dose is one 120 mg capsule three times a day with each meal that contains fat. Xenical can be taken during meals or up to 1 hour after. Xenical is intended for patients with a body fat mass of more than 30%. Patients with health related risk (diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease) can take Xenical only if their fat mass is above 27%.
More Info
Xenical is used to help obese people who fit certain weight and height requirements lose weight and maintain weight loss. Xenical works in your intestines, where it blocks some of the fat you eat from being absorbed. This undigested fat is then eliminated in your bowel movements. Use Xenical together with a reduced-calorie diet. The weight management effects of Xenical continue only as long as you are taking it.
How Xenical Is Taken
Xenical comes in a capsule to take it orally. Xenical is usually taken tree times a day with food. Take Xenical exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of Xenical or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Xenical should be given with meals. A diet consisting of daily intake of fat (30% of total calories), carbohydrates, and protein should be distributed evenly over 3 main meals.

Before taking Xenical, talk to your doctor if you have a history of kidney stones, have diabetes, have anorexia or bulimia, take any other weight-loss medicine, or take cyclosporine.

If you miss a dose resume taking Xenical at the next meal. Do not try to make up the loss with a double dose. The extra drug will not help.
Xenical Possible Side Effects
Stop taking Xenical and seek emergency medical attention if you experience a rare allergic reaction including shortness of breath; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives. Other, less serious side effects are more likely to occur. Continue to take Xenical and talk to your doctor if you experience oily spotting, gas with discharge, an urgent need to go to the bathroom, oily or fatty stools, an oily discharge, an increased number of bowel movements, an inability to control bowel movements, or orange or brown colored oil in your stool. The bowel changes listed above are a natural effect of blocking fat and indicate that Xenical is working. They generally occur early in treatment, particularly after meals containing higher amounts of fat than are recommended. These symptoms are usually temporary and lessen or disappear as you continue treatment and keep to your recommended diet of meals containing 30% fat. Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
