O Trim 120mg Capsule

O Trim 120mg Capsule is a prescription medicine used to support weight loss in obese and overweight individuals. It contains Orlistat (120mg), a lipase inhibitor that reduces fat absorption from the food you eat. O Trim is most effective when combined with a calorie-controlled diet and regular physical activity. It is designed to aid individuals who are struggling to lose weight and helps reduce the risk of obesity-related health issues such as type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and heart disease.

Uses of O Trim 120mg Capsule

• Helps in reducing body weight in obese adults
• Prevents weight regain after initial weight loss
• Reduces the risk of obesity-related conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes

How O Trim 120mg Capsule works

O Trim Capsule contains Orlistat, which works by blocking the function of an enzyme called lipase in your gut. This enzyme is responsible for breaking down dietary fat so it can be absorbed by the body. By inhibiting lipase, Orlistat prevents the digestion and absorption of about 30% of the fat consumed, allowing it to pass out of the body in the stool. This helps reduce calorie intake and supports gradual weight loss.

• Prevents regaining weight after losing it
• Improves control of obesity-related conditions
• Non-addictive and acts only within the digestive system
