Always follow the instructions on the Alli packaging. Begin with a 60mg capsule, three times daily, with each of your three main meals.
Dosage Adjustments
Don’t exceed the recommended daily dose of 180mg. Increasing the dosage won’t lead to faster weight loss and could cause unwanted side effects.
When to Take Alli
- Take Alli with each meal containing fat. If you skip a meal containing fat, skip your Alli capsule. Avoid taking Alli if you aren’t eating a fat-containing meal.
Things to Remember
Alli works by blocking about 25% of the fat you consume from being absorbed. This is not a magic bullet; a balanced diet and regular exercise are crucial for weight loss. Expect some gastrointestinal side effects, such as oily stools, gas, and urgent bowel movements, especially in the beginning. These usually lessen with continued use. If they persist or worsen, consult your doctor. Consume a diet low in fat while taking Alli. Sudden increases in fat intake may increase the severity of side effects. This medication is not suitable for everyone. Consult your physician before use, especially if you have pre-existing health conditions or are taking other medications.
Dietary Recommendations
Follow a reduced-calorie diet and increase your physical activity for optimal results. Alli isn’t a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices.
