O‑Stat 60 mg is a prescription lipase inhibitor for weight loss, blocking about 25% of dietary fat absorption. Taken with meals, it supports adults with BMI ≥ 28 in managing obesity alongside a low‑fat diet and exercise, while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects versus higher doses.
O-Stat 60 mg is a prescription anti-obesity medication containing 60 mg of orlistat, a lipase inhibitor manufactured by Aristo Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd. It is used to aid weight loss in adults aged 18 and older with a body mass index (BMI) of 28 or higher, or BMI ≥ 25 with conditions like diabetes or hypertension. Orlistat blocks approximately 25% of dietary fat absorption by inhibiting gastric and pancreatic lipases in the stomach and small intestine, allowing unabsorbed fat to be excreted in feces. This reduces calorie intake, supporting weight loss when combined with a low-calorie, low-fat diet (≤30% fat calories) and regular exercise. O-Stat 60 mg is taken orally with fat-containing meals, offering a lower-dose option compared to 120 mg formulations, with fewer gastrointestinal side effects. Medical supervision is essential due to potential interactions and side effects, and it is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, children under 18, or those with malabsorption or cholestasis.
