can alli be used with diets that are low in carbohydrates and high in fat?
No. alli is only recommended in conjunction with low-fat diets that contain about 15 grams of fat per meal. Eating a meal with too much fat while taking alli can result in bowel changes, such as loose stools, more frequent stools that may be hard to control or gas with oily spotting. These changes, called treatment effects, may occur in the first weeks of treatment, are not harmful and can be managed by following a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet of no more than 15 grams of fat per meal.
