When using this product
Take a multivitamin once a day, at bedtime. Orlistat can reduce the absorption of some vitamins.
Follow a well-balanced, reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. Try starting this diet before taking orlistat.
Orlistat works by preventing the absorption of some of the fat you eat. The fat passes out of your body, so you may have bowel changes. You may get: - Gas with oily spotting - Loose stools - More frequent stools that may be hard to control
Eating a low-fat diet lowers the chance of having these bowel changes
For every 5 pounds you lose from diet alone, orlistat can help you lose 2-3 pounds more. In studies, most people lost 5-10 pounds over 6 months.
Stop use and ask a doctor if
Severe or continuous abdominal pain occurs. This may be a sign of a serious medical condition.
If pregnant or breast-feeding, do not use.
Keep out of reach of children. In case of overdose, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.

This product has been a Godsend for me! I was warned about the (please excuse the frankness) sometimes rapid and explosive effects of this product. The whole thing is - do not eat something with alot of fat or oil in it or you will pay for it! I started on a weekend where I did need to be at home in case of what was to happen. and I started with one then two a day. After about a week I was at 3 a day if it was called for and since mid April I have lost a little over 30 pounds (2-3 lbs a week) I am careful and do not over use this drug, but the steady loss of weight has been fantastic and keeps encouraging me to do the right thing and eat better and exercise more. I plan to lose 80 lbs altogether to get down to 170 lbs and knowing this has been such a great product has helped me stay on track and be successful. I strongly recommend this product for people who want to seriously tackle their problem with being significantly overweight.

I started taking this product and used it for 3 months. It really helped me lose weight. I lost 10 pounds faster than I would have without taking the pill. However, there is a warning on the label which I disregarded because I thought that I wouldn't have a problem with. But I was wrong, If you are prone to gall stones (which I didn't know I was) then you may develope them in your gall bladder while taking this pill. I had a very painful attack one night and then had to have surgery to have my gall bladder removed. Please heed the warning and find out from your doctor if you are prone to getting gall stones.
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
This product helped me loose 50 pounds in 9 months when I combined it with the sensible diet from Weight Watchers! Caution...you CAN have some of the side effects!
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
I find this product very effective, as long as you follow a LOW FAT DIET. IF you try to "cheat," and have a high fat meal, then take this, you WILL have cramps, gas and horrible diarrhea (sorry, no "delicate" way to put this). As long as you follow the directions, I have had zero problems, and have lost about 30 lbs. quite easily. I highly recommend this product!
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
This is a great way to lose weight easily. I have lost 20 lbs so far. For the greatest results you should stick to the low-fat diet, and exercise really helps you drop the pounds faster.
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
My cousins use this and have lost a lot of weight and they were not dieting. This does absolutely nothing for me. I can eat all the fat I want and this does nothing. Diet alone without this product works better for me and a lot less expensive. Those nasty side effects they promise if you eat fat, doesn't happen to me. I tried this before but wasn't eating hardly any fat. This did nothing for me then either. So for some unknown reason, this product doesn't work on me.
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
I take a pill before EVERY meal....yes, even the high fat ones, especially the high fat ones. I have gone on and off food plans, but I like using the Alli to help me maintain, too. I am lucky, I do not get the uncontrollable oil spills so many others experience. What happens to me is that I just have to go to the bathroom more often. I consider that a plus. I don't get as much fat with my meal and my body gets rid of it sooner. Win win!
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
It works I think mainly because you know if you eat anything fatty you are going to blank yourself. If you are not scared of this happening then fine. I would rather just cut back on my own then be scared to eat. Burns too coming out! I ruined a nice house coat one morning thanks to Ali.
Comments about Alli Weight Loss Aid Refill, 120 ea:
You can read all the pros and cons in the other reviews. Basically - the stuff does what it says it will - keeps your body from absorbing fat - so that it passes through. If you're careful you shouldn't have too many "side effects" and, actually, once your body is adjusted to using this, the "side effects" generally don't come back even if you DO overdo it a bit with eating something fatty.
I just wanted to let you all know that, while it works, I've recently read that there may be some concerns about taxing your liver with this type of product. So, if you drink alcohol and/or take Tylenol or other things that tax your liver, you might want to be wary of overdoing it with this.
For myself, since I also drink wine, I prefer to take it easy - using this just for my evening meal, so that I can correct for the higher fat consumption then, without taking this multiple times a day every day.
With this pattern of use, I do think it's helped me to maintain my weight - but I haven't found it too helpful in actually losing weight.
