Orlistat, also known as tetrahydrolipstatin, is a lipase inhibitor drug designed to treat obesity. Its primary function is preventing the absorption of fats from the human diet, thereby reducing caloric intake. It is intended for use in conjunction with a physician-supervised reduced-calorie diet. Orlistat is the saturated derivative of lipstatin, a potent natural inhibitor of pancreatic lipases isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces toxytricini.. However, due to simplicity and stability, orlistat rather than lipstatin was developed into an anti-obesity drug.

Orlistat pellets are available in 50% W/W strength.

Customized strength of pellets also can be supplied as per the choice of the customers. These are in ready to fill form.
