Xenical Prescription Drug Information
The following information is
intended to supplement, not substitute for, the expertise and
judgment of your physician, pharmacist or other healthcare
professional. It should not be construed to indicate that use of
the drug is safe, appropriate, or effective for you. Consult
your healthcare professional before using this drug.
Online Xenical Prescription Use Indication:
Xenical prescription drug is best taken by
mouth, generally three times daily during (or up to one hour
after) each main meal that contains fat. Your daily intake of
fat, protein and carbohydrate should be evenly spread over three
main meals. If a meal is occasionally missed or contains no fat,
skip that dose of the medication. Because this drug can
interfere with absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (e.g., A,D,E,K),
a daily multivitamin supplement containing these nutrients is
recommended. Take the multivitamin at least 2 hours before or 2
hours after this drug (e.g., at bedtime). The effects of this
drug may begin as soon as 1-2 days after treatment begins;
noticeable weight loss will take longer
Xenical Diet Pills Side Effects:
Fatty/oily stool,
oily spotting, intestinal gas with discharge, bowel movement
urgency, poor bowel control, or headaches may occur. If these
effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly.
Intestinal side effects (e.g., oily stool) may increase in
intensity if you exceed your daily dietary fat allowance. If you
notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or
pharmacist.
Precautions on using Xenical
Prescription:
Tell your doctor your medical history,
including: allergies, digestive disorders (malabsorption or
cholestasis), low thyroid function (hypothyroidism), other
metabolism problems (e.g., oxalate kidney stones, hyperoxaluria).
This drug should not be used if you have anorexia nervosa or
bulimia-type eating disorders. Tell your doctor if you are
pregnant before using Xenical medication. The manufacturer does
not recommend use of this drug during pregnancy. It is not known
whether this drug is excreted into breast milk. Because of the
potential risk to the infant, breast-feeding while using this
drug is not recommended. Consult your doctor before
breast-feeding.
Xenical Prescription Drug Interaction:
Tell your doctor of all prescription and
nonprescription medication you use, especially of: cyclosporine,
"blood thinners" (e.g., warfarin), drugs for diabetes (e.g.,
insulin), other drugs used for weight loss. Cyclosporine should
be taken at least 2 hours before or after orlistat to assure
maximum absorption of the cyclosporine into your bloodstream. Do
not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist
approval.
