How to Lose Weight With Xenical

Xenical is the trade name for tetrahydrolipstatin, an anti-obesity drug. It is a potent pancreatic lipase inhibitor that is isolated from the Streptomyces toxytricini bacterium. The absence of lipase prevents triglycerides from being digested, and they are eliminated undigested through the feces. The following steps will show how to lose weight with Xenical.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Take the recommended dosage of Xenical to lose weight. It should be limited to 120mg three times per day because amounts greater than this do not provide any additional benefit. You also may need to take supplements of vitamins D, E, K and beta-carotene because Xenical inhibits the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.

2. Swallow the tablet with a full glass of water within one hour of a main meal. This meal should get less than 30 percent of its calories from fat. You should divide your daily food intake into three equal portions without any snacking when taking Xenical.

3. Skip your dose of Xenical if you miss a meal or if it is fat free. You should not take a double dose.

4. Study the contraindications for Xenical. You should not take it if you suffer from a malabsorption syndrome or have certain gallbladder disorders. Xenical may require special monitoring or dosages if you have anorexia, bulimia, diabetes or are taking other weight-loss medication.

5. Learn the side effects of using Xenical to lose weight. These most commonly include oily spotting and gas with discharge. There also may be an allergic reaction with shortness of breath and swelling of the face, lips, throat and tongue in rare cases.
