Orlis Capsule 120mg contains Orlistat, a prescription medicine used for the management of obesity and weight loss. It works by blocking the absorption of dietary fats in the intestines, helping reduce calorie intake and supporting weight reduction when combined with a healthy diet and exercise.

Orlistat belongs to a class of drugs called lipase inhibitors, which prevent fat-digesting enzymes from breaking down fats in food. As a result, some of the fat is eliminated from the body instead of being absorbed.
