You should think of weight loss in terms of permanently changing your eating habits, your exercise regime - your lifestyle. Xenical can be part of a sensible and sustainable way for overweight patients to lose weight, and to maintain a healthy weight on a long-term basis.

Weight Loss Medication

Weight Loss medication have had a troubled history. There's never been a prescription diet drug approved that had more benefits than risks, and over-the-counter drugs generally have produced only modest weight loss, with some pills posing severe health risks.

Some amphetamines have been banned because they're addictive and cause psychotic behaviour and brain damage. The "fen-phen" diet-pill combination was taken off the market after it was linked to heart valve damage. The government banned the herbal supplement ephedra after it was linked to strokes and anxiety.

Other drugs banned include: *Phentermine (the "phen" in fen-phen) suppresses appetite, but works only for a few weeks because the body builds up resistance. *Meridia gives users a feeling of fullness and can be used long term. But it can increase blood pressure and heart rate and isn't meant for heart patients.

That left just one prescription drug: *Xenical blocks the absorption of dietary fat. But it can cause bowel changes, including gas, oily discharge and accidental bowel movements.
