Xenical (orlistat) is an innovative weight loss medication that aids individuals in managing obesity by inhibiting the absorption of dietary fats in the intestine. Obesity is a significant health concern that increases the risk of various conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Xenical offers a unique approach to weight management by preventing the breakdown and absorption of about 30% of the fat consumed in a meal, which is then excreted from the body. This reduction in fat absorption helps lower overall caloric intake, making it easier for individuals to lose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle. When combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise, Xenical can significantly improve weight loss outcomes and reduce obesity-related health risks. It is a valuable tool for those struggling with weight management, providing support and efficacy in achieving long-term weight loss goals.

Xenical and Lipitor (atorvastatin) are the two medications that are the same drug that is used to treat, for which cholesterol-lowering drugs such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) are the mainstays.

Xenical is used to treat a condition that is caused by excessive cholesterol production. Lipitor increases this by blocking the cholesterol synthesis in people who have high cholesterol.

The risk is higher when the liver is not producing enough cholesterol to meet the necessary protein. If your liver is producing too much cholesterol, you may be at an increased risk of blood clots.
Drug interactions with other drugs that affect cholesterol production include:
