FDA reports liver failure with Orlistat

 

At least 32 reports revealed liver problems with the FDA approved non-prescription weight loss aid, Orlistat, over-the-counter weight loss product known as, Alli.

Orlistat is marketed as:

• Alli can help you change the way you eat, so you can lose weight and earn to keep it off
• Alli can make a healthy start this summer with recipes provided
• Alli and a link to their website at myalli.com
• Alli can help you lose more weight than dieting alone

Rely on yourself and if necessary, a good registered dietitian, but please, try not to access weight loss aids for weight loss.
