Alli
Active Ingredients:
- Orlistat
How does the medication work?
The active ingredient of generic Alli is orlistat which is specific inhibitor of gastrointestinal lipases.
Orlistat exerts its therapeutic action in the stomach and bowel where it binds to serine parts of stomach and intestinal lipases. Inactivated enzymes loose the ability to break down fats (lipids) which are coming in the form of triglycerides). As a result less lipids are absorbed into the blood circulation and the organism gets less calories. This is beneficial for weight loss management. Unabsorbed fats are eliminated with faeces.
