What is Xenical Capsules 120mg?

Xenical 120mg Capsule is a medicine that is used to aid in weight loss or to help in reducing the risk of gaining weight that was already lost. The medication can only be used by adults and works best when it is used together with a calorie-reduced diet along with regular physical activities.

How Does Xenical Work?

Obesity is a condition in which abnormal or excess fat has accumulated in the body to the extent that it presents negative risk factors to health. Physical activity and diet control are some of the methods that are normally used to combat obesity. However, the Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of medication such as the Xenical 120 mg capsule to aid with weight management. Xenical 120mg Capsule belongs to a class of medication called lipase inhibitors that work by preventing the fat in food substances from being absorbed in the intestines. As a result, the excess unabsorbed fat is naturally excreted from the body. This way, a person can lose weight, or prevent gaining the weight that was previously lost.
