If you know what it’s like to step on the scales and not lose as much weight as you were expecting, alli could be just what you need.

• alli is not a magic slimming pill. It’s a weight loss capsule designed to be used with a support programme to help boost your weight loss. It’s clinically proven that adding alli to a reduced calorie, lower-fat diet can boost your weight loss by 50%.
• It works by stopping some of the fat you eat from being absorbed, so for every 2 lb (1 kg) you lose from eating healthily, adding alli can help you lose 1 lb (1/2 kg) more.
• alli is the first pharmacy-only weight loss aid licensed throughout Europe.

Take Xenical exactly as directed on the label, or as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor. Follow the directions on your prescription label.

Xenical comes with patient instructions for safe and effective use. Follow these directions carefully. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.

Xenical is only part of a complete program of treatment that also includes diet, exercise, and weight control. Your daily intake of fat, protein, and carbohydrates should be evenly divided over all of your daily meals. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely.

Take Xenical during or within 1 hour after a meal that contains some fat (no more than 30% of the calories for that meal). Xenical is usually taken 3 times daily.

If you skip a meal or you eat a meal that does not contain any fat, skip your Xenical dose for that meal.

The fat content of your daily diet should not be greater than 30% of your total daily caloric intake. For example, if you eat 1200 calories per day, no more than 360 of those calories should be in the form of fat.
