Reeshape contains Orlistat, a medicine used to aid weight loss in adults who are overweight or obese. It works alongside a reduced-calorie diet and exercise program. Reeshape helps prevent the absorption of some of the fat from the food you eat, which can help reduce overall calorie intake and support gradual weight loss.

Mechanism of action:
Orlistat in Reeshape works by inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that breaks down dietary fats in the intestines. When fats are not broken down, they are excreted in the stool instead of being absorbed into the body, which reduces calorie intake and promotes weight loss.

Uses:

• Weight management in adults with overweight or obesity

• Reducing the risk of obesity-related complications such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and high cholesterol

• Often used alongside lifestyle changes like diet and exercise

Adverse effects:
Common side effects include oily or fatty stools, loose stools, increased bowel movements, and gas with discharge. Less common effects may include abdominal discomfort, headache, and rare liver injury. Because Reeshape reduces absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), supplementation may be needed.
