Slimtop 60 mg (Orlistat) Capsules

Slimtop 60 mg Overview

Slimtop 60 mg contains Orlistat 60 mg, a medicine used to support weight loss and weight management in adults who are overweight or have obesity. It is most effective when combined with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. Rather than suppressing appetite, Orlistat works within the digestive system to reduce the amount of fat absorbed from food, helping create a calorie deficit that supports gradual, sustainable weight loss.

Mechanism of Action

Orlistat is a gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor. It blocks gastric and pancreatic lipase enzymes that digest dietary fat. Approximately 25–30% of the fat consumed in meals is not absorbed and is eliminated naturally through bowel movements. Because it acts locally in the digestive tract, only a very small amount is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Uses

Slimtop 60 mg may be used to:

• Support healthy weight loss in overweight adults.

• Assist with long-term weight management.

• Help reduce dietary fat absorption.

• Complement a calorie-controlled, low-fat eating plan.

• Encourage healthier lifestyle changes when combined with exercise.

Dosage

• Take one 60 mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily.

• Take during the meal or within one hour after eating.

• Skip the dose if you skip a meal or if the meal contains no fat.

• Do not exceed the recommended dose unless directed by your healthcare provider.

Precautions

Consult a healthcare professional before using Slimtop 60 mg if you:

• Have liver or kidney disease.

• Have gallbladder disease.

• Have chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis.

• Have diabetes or thyroid disorders.

• Are pregnant or breastfeeding.

• Take blood thinners, cyclosporine, levothyroxine, epilepsy medicines, or HIV medicines.

Since Orlistat may reduce the absorption of vitamins A, D, E, and K, a daily multivitamin may be recommended and should be taken at least two hours before or after the medicine or at bedtime.
