How soon after starting Xenical should I expect to notice weight loss?
Typically, people begin losing weight within 2 weeks of starting XENICAL, and may continue to lose weight for 6 to 12 months, at which point weight loss usually begins to level off — even if youre still taking XENICAL. This doesnt mean that XENICAL is not working. People who continue to take XENICAL are better able to maintain their weight loss. Keep your doctor informed about your progress so that he or she can make sure your diet and your level of physical activity remain appropriate to your weight-loss goals. Once you reach your initial goal, you may want to set a new goal and have your doctor re-evaluate your calorie and activity levels.
