The active ingredient in Lipophase is Orlistat. Orlistat stops the body from absorbing some of the fat that we eat. It does this by blocking an enzyme called lipase, which usually breaks down fat in our gut. When this happens, some of the fat we eat goes straight through us and out in our stools. So, essentially, when you take Lipophase you won't absorb as many calories from the food you eat, which can help you lose weight.
Orlistat only affects fat, not carbohydrates or protein. It is usually used with a low-calorie diet and exercise plan. Orlistat should only be taken with advice from a doctor and can cause some unpleasant digestive side effects, such as oily poo, gas, and tummy pain.
Lipophase has been extensively studied, and there is evidence that supports its safety and efficacy in weight loss. For example, a systematic review of randomized controlled trials involving more than 10,000 patients found that orlistat was effective in reducing body weight, BMI, and waist circumference, and was generally well-tolerated with minimal side effects.
In another study, researchers followed over 30,000 patients taking orlistat for up to 4 years and found that the medication was safe and effective for weight loss, and did not increase the risk of serious adverse events compared to placebo.
However, it is important to note that orlistat is not suitable for everyone, and some people may experience side effects or have pre-existing medical conditions that make it unsafe for them to take the medication. As with any treatment, it is essential to consult with your doctor before starting orlistat to ensure that it is safe and appropriate for your individual needs.
The ideal candidate for using Lipophase is an adult who is overweight or obese, with a BMI (body mass index) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with other weight-related health issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol. Orlistat is intended for use in combination with a reduced-calorie diet and exercise program, and it is recommended for people who are committed to making lifestyle changes to support their weight loss goals.

Before starting Lipophase, your doctor may recommend making some changes to your diet and exercise routine to help optimize your weight loss results and reduce the risk of potential side effects. Along with introducing a healthy, reduced-calorie diet and regular exercise to your daily routine, the doctor may prescribe a few multivitamins that you can start taking as Lipophase can reduce the absorption of some fat-soluble vitamins and minerals.
Generally, Lipophase is taken orally with each meal that contains fat, up to three times per day. It is important to follow a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet while taking orlistat to minimize the risk of side effects and maximize weight loss.
Additionally, it is recommended to take a multivitamin supplement containing fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K) at least 2 hours before or after taking Lipophase, as it may interfere with the absorption of these vitamins. It is important to not exceed the recommended dose of Lipophase and to always consult with a healthcare professional before starting or stopping any medication.
It is generally safe to take Lipophase for up to a year, as long as it is used under the guidance of a doctor and as part of a comprehensive weight loss program. In fact, clinical studies have shown that patients who took Orlistat for up to two years achieved significant weight loss and improvements in other health markers such as blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
However, the duration of treatment with Lipophase depends upon the amount of weight you lose after taking it for 3 months. Your doctor will only recommend that you keep taking it if they see that it’s helping you during this time. If, even after 3 months of treatment, there is no sign of improvement in your weight at all, Lipophase may not be the right treatment for you.
