Xenical

Xenical (active ingredient Orlistat), is a prescription medication that helps block approximately one-third of the fat in the foods you eat from being absorbed by your body.

In clinical studies, people treated with Xenical and a reduced-calorie diet with no more than 30% of calories from fat achieved significantly greater weight loss than people who were treated with diet alone.

Unlike other commonly prescribed weight-loss medications, Xenical is not an appetite suppressant and does not have a direct effect on the brain. Instead, it works in your digestive system to block about one-third of the fat in the food you eat from being digested.
