Buy Alli Weight Loss Capsules

Alli Weight Loss Capsules are clinically proven to help you lose more weight than dieting alone. These effective, easy-to-take capsules stop about a quarter of the fat in your meals from being absorbed. Alli can boost your weight loss efforts, too, meaning that for every 2lb you lose, they can help you to lose an extra 1lb.

Your BMI (body mass index) is a measure that uses both your height and weight to see if your weight is healthy. Alli Weight Loss Capsules are designed for those who have a BMI of 28 or over and are considered overweight. If you’re unsure about your BMI, the NHS has a BMI calculator that can do the hard work for you.

How Alli Weight Loss Capsules work

The active ingredient in Alli Weight Loss Capsules is orlistat, a drug designed to combat obesity by targeting the fat in your digestive system. It stops about a quarter of the fat in your meals from being absorbed and passes out of the body in your stools.

Alli must be used in combination with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. The capsules will assist your efforts by helping you lose more weight compared to dieting alone.

Directions

Always take Alli Weight Loss Capsules exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you. You should take Alli Weight Loss Capsules with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise program until you reach your weight loss goal.

For adults aged 18 and over, take 1 capsule with every meal that contains fat. Do not take more than 3 capsules per day. While taking this product, taking a multivitamin once a day at bedtime is recommended. This is because the active ingredient, orlistat, reduces the absorption of some vitamins.

Consuming too much fat makes you more likely to experience side effects such as diarrhoea. For this reason, do not exceed the amount of allowed calories and fat content in your meals and snacks. Your calorie target will depend on your gender, activity levels, and weight. For more information on calorie targets, refer to the information leaflet provided.

Side effects

Like all medicines, Alli Weight Loss Capsules may cause side effects in some people, but these won’t affect everybody. Side effects may include:

• Gas with oily spotting

• More frequent stools that may be hard to control

For more information on potential side effects, refer to the patient information leaflet. If you experience any side effects, including any not included in the patient information leaflet, you can report them using the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
