Product Introduction

Orlistat 96829-58-2 is a gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor; common dosage forms include capsules and tablets. Combining the pharmacological effects of inhibiting dietary fat absorption, controlling body weight, and improving obesity-related metabolic abnormalities, it is the world's first approved oral anti-obesity drug and currently the only oral weight loss drug approved as an over-the-counter (OTC) drug in China.

Effects and Functions: It prevents about 30% of dietary fat from being absorbed through a unique "peripheral action" mechanism-inhibiting lipase activity in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby reducing calorie intake. It is suitable for obese and overweight patients who have undergone moderate dietary control and exercise, including weight loss treatment for patients with obesity-related comorbidities (such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, etc.). Orlistat is a long-acting, specific gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor that acts only locally in the lumen of the stomach and small intestine. It forms a covalent bond with the active site serine of gastric lipase and pancreatic lipase, inactivating the lipase; inactivated enzymes cannot hydrolyze dietary triglycerides into absorbable free fatty acids and monoacylglycerols. Unhydrolyzed fat cannot be absorbed by the intestinal tract and is directly excreted out of the body with feces. The standard 120mg dose can block about 30% of dietary fat absorption, creating a calorie gap to achieve weight management.
