REESHAPE 60MG

About

REESHAPE 60MG contains Orlistat, a potent and specific inhibitor of gastrointestinal lipases. It works by forming a covalent bond with the active site of gastric and pancreatic lipases, thereby inactivating these enzymes. This prevents the hydrolysis of dietary triglycerides into absorbable free fatty acids and monoglycerides. As a result, approximately 25-30% of dietary fat is not absorbed and is excreted in the feces. This mechanism leads to a significant reduction in caloric intake from fat, promoting weight loss.

Orlistat is indicated for weight management in overweight and obese adults, in conjunction with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet. It helps to achieve and maintain weight loss and can improve weight-related risk factors such as high cholesterol and blood pressure. The 60mg dose is typically available over-the-counter for mild to moderate weight management, offering a non-systemic approach to weight reduction.
