About This Product
Orlecease Capsule contains Orlistat 60 mg, which is used as part of a weight management plan for overweight or obese adults. It works in the digestive system by reducing the amount of fat absorbed from food. The medicine is generally used along with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. It should be taken only as directed by a healthcare professional.
Uses & Therapeutic Benefits

Potential Adverse Effects
Common side effects may include oily or fatty stools, increased bowel movements, sudden urge to pass stools, loose stools, stomach discomfort, gas, and leakage of oily stools. These effects may be more noticeable after meals that contain a high amount of fat. Contact your doctor if side effects are severe or persistent.
Dosage & Administration
Take Orlecease Capsule exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is generally taken with a meal containing fat or within a short time after the meal. Swallow the capsule whole with water. If a meal is missed or contains no fat, the dose may not be needed. Do not take more than the recommended dose.
The recommended dose depends on the patient's individual condition and medical advice. For Orlistat 60 mg products, the usual adult regimen may involve one capsule with each main meal containing fat. Do not exceed the prescribed dose. Follow your doctor's instructions for the correct duration of treatment.
Mechanism of Action
Orlistat works inside the digestive tract by blocking the action of certain enzymes called lipases. These enzymes normally break down dietary fat so it can be absorbed by the body. By reducing fat digestion and absorption, Orlistat helps lower the number of calories absorbed from food, which can support weight loss when combined with a healthy diet and regular physical activity.
Precautions & Warnings
Use Orlecease only under medical advice. Inform your doctor if you have digestive problems, problems with bile flow, kidney disease, or any other medical condition. Tell your doctor about all medicines and supplements you take. Orlistat can reduce the absorption of some fat-soluble vitamins, so your healthcare provider may recommend a suitable multivitamin supplement.
If You Miss a Dose
If you forget to take a dose with a meal, take it only if you remember within the recommended time after the meal. If a considerable amount of time has passed, skip the missed dose and continue with your next scheduled meal. Do not take an extra capsule to make up for a missed dose.
Alternative Options
Other Orlistat 60 mg capsules may be available from different manufacturers. Substitution should be done only after checking the strength and formulation with a doctor or pharmacist.
Helpful Usage Advice
- Follow a balanced, reduced-calorie and low-fat diet.
- Avoid eating large amounts of fat in a single meal.
- Take the medicine only as prescribed.
- Regular physical activity can improve weight management results.
- A multivitamin may be recommended because Orlistat can affect the absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K.
- Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
