What are the side effects of Xenical?
All drugs have side effects, and Xenical is no exception. Xenical could be less severe than what someone would experience with many other weight loss drugs. Possible side-effects include: • Fatty / oily stool • oily spotting • intestinal gas with discharge • bowel movement urgency • poor bowel control • headaches may occur If these effects persist or worsen, notify us or your doctor promptly. Intestinal side effects (e.g., oily stool) may increase in intensity if you exceed your daily dietary fat allowance. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist. Order Xenical online today from First Med Weight Loss Clinic.
Secondary to the mechanism of action, blocking the absorption of dietary fat, most individuals experience some changes in bowel habits. These changes may include gas with discharge, an increase in the frequency of bowel movements, fatty or oily stools and sometimes the inability to control bowel movements. These symptoms generally occur early in the treatment and subside in a relatively short period of time. Adhering to the recommended diet, meals that contain no greater than 30 percent of the calories from fat may significantly reduce any side effects.
