What is EcoSlim Orlistat 120mg?
EcoSlim Orlistat 120mg is a pharmaceutical-grade weight management medication designed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. It contains Orlistat, a potent lipase inhibitor that helps you lose weight by preventing your body from absorbing a portion of the fat you eat.
Unlike other weight loss pills that suppress appetite or increase heart rate, EcoSlim works locally in your digestive system. It is manufactured by Micro Labs Limited and is registered by NAFDAC (Reg. No. A4-9348) for use in Nigeria.
How EcoSlim Orlistat Works
When you take an EcoSlim capsule with a meal, the active ingredient Orlistat attaches itself to enzymes in your digestive system called lipases. These enzymes are responsible for breaking down dietary fat into smaller components that your body can absorb. By blocking these enzymes, EcoSlim ensures that about 25% of the fat consumed in your meal passes through your system undigested.
Because the fat is not absorbed, it cannot be stored as extra calories or body fat, supporting your weight loss journey when combined with a low-calorie, low-fat diet.
How to Use EcoSlim Orlistat 120mg
For the best results, follow these dosage guidelines:
- Dosage: Take one 120mg capsule three times daily.
- Timing: Take the capsule with water immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal.
- Diet: Your daily intake of fat, carbohydrate, and protein should be distributed over three main meals.
- Missed Meals: If you miss a meal or eat a meal that contains no fat, you should skip that dose of EcoSlim.
Important Side Effects to Note
As EcoSlim prevents fat absorption, the unabsorbed fat is excreted through your bowel movements. This can lead to common side effects known as treatment-induced effects:
- Oily spotting in undergarments
- Flatulence (gas) with discharge
- Urgent or more frequent bowel movements
- Oily or fatty stools
These effects are often manageable by sticking to a low-fat diet. If your meal is very high in fat, these symptoms may be more pronounced.
