🧬 Introduction – What Is Obelit 120mg (Orlistat)?

Obelit 120mg contains Orlistat, a gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor used for effective weight management in adults. Manufactured by Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Obelit is an Indian generic equivalent of Xenical, approved for patients with a BMI ≥30, or BMI ≥27 with associated risk factors like hypertension or diabetes.

Orlistat works by blocking fat absorption in the intestines, allowing dietary fats to pass undigested. This mechanism reduces total calorie intake, supporting gradual and medically supervised weight loss.

Obelit is commonly used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise program.
