FAQs

How does Alli help with weight loss?

Alli belongs to a class of drugs called lipase inhibitors. It targets dietary fat, preventing about 25% of fat from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat exits the body through feces.

What kind of diet should I follow while taking Alli?

Stick to a low-calorie, low-fat diet. High-fat meals can lead to unpleasant side effects. Focus on eating plenty of vegetables, fruits, and small, frequent meals. Maintain a regular eating schedule and avoid skipping meals.

Can I drink alcohol while taking this medicine?

Although alcohol does not interfere with the effects of Alli, it is best to avoid it. Alcohol contains calories that can hinder weight loss efforts.

Who should not take Alli?

Avoid taking Alli if you:

• Are allergic to it
• Have chronic malabsorption syndrome
• Have cholestasis (blocked bile flow)
• Are pregnant or breastfeeding

Is exercise important while taking Alli?

Yes, combining exercise with Alli enhances weight loss and helps maintain lost weight. Even after stopping the medication, regular exercise and a low-calorie diet can support long-term weight management.
