Megaburn 60 is a prescription anti-obesity medication containing 60 mg of orlistat, a lipase inhibitor manufactured by Leeford Healthcare Ltd. Designed to aid weight loss in adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 25 or higher, it blocks approximately 25% of dietary fat absorption by inhibiting lipase enzymes in the stomach and small intestine. Unabsorbed fat is excreted through feces, reducing calorie intake and supporting weight loss when paired with a low-calorie, low-fat diet and regular exercise. Megaburn 60 is ideal for overweight individuals, including those with obesity-related conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol, helping to mitigate health risks. Its lower dose compared to Megaburn 120 makes it suitable for those requiring milder treatment or experiencing side effects at higher doses. Medical supervision is essential, and it is not recommended for pregnant/breastfeeding women, children under 18, or those with specific medical conditions.
