Orlistat works by inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme that breaks down triglycerides in the intestine.
Orlistat blocks some of the fat that you eat, keeping it from being absorbed by your body.
Orlistat is used to aid in weight loss, or to help reduce the risk of regaining weight already lost. This medicine must be used together with a reduced-calorie diet.

Orlistat is in a class of drugs called lipase inhibitors. It works in your intestines, where it blocks some of the fat you eat from being absorbed and digested. This undigested fat is then removed in your bowel movements
Cetilistat is a lipase inhibitor and works by binding to and blocking the action of the enzyme lipase. This prevents the fat (triglycerides) in food from being metabolised and turned into free fatty acids that can be absorbed by the body. Instead, the un-metabolised fat is eliminated from the body through bowel movements. Cetilistat is different from other anti-obesity drugs because instead of acting on the brain to decrease appetite, it works on the gastrointestinal tract to block fat absorption.
Cetilistat is generally taken with food, or even up to 1 hour after having food. If you skip a meal or if your food does not contain any fat, you can skip taking Cetilistat for that meal. The exact dosage and period of treatment will depend on your specific diagnosis and overall health and will be prescribed by your doctor.
