Pharmacist's opinion

This medicine is widely used for weight loss because it accelerates the slimming process. It is important to follow the instructions on the package leaflet and not to take it if you do not eat any fats at mealtimes, e.g. fruit breakfast, as it only acts on the absorption of fats.

It is not recommended to take it with very fatty meals as the side effects will be accentuated.

Alli comes in a handy pack so that you can carry the capsules you need to take throughout the day in your pocket.
