New data show fast and significant weight loss with Xenical sustained over time

Xenical achieved improvements in:

Waist circumference: An average reduction of 10.8 cm was achieved after one year. Excess fat around the waist is associated with insulin resistance, high blood sugar, high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure
Blood pressure (bp): In patients with hypertension, mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure were reduced by 18.1mmHg and 9.9mmHg respectively
Cholesterol: The lipid profile of patients was markedly improved: mean LDL-cholesterol (bad cholesterol) levels were reduced by 10.7 per cent and mean total cholesterol levels by 6.8 per cent

The reductions in blood pressure are a key finding as the number of overweight people with hypertension is almost three times higher than the number of adults with a healthy weight. 3 Xenical is the only prescription weight-loss medication, which can be used in patients with hypertension or uncontrolled hypertension.4

Xenicals mode of action is unique. Unlike appetite suppressants, which have a history of withdrawals because of safety concerns, Xenical does not act on the central nervous system. As a result of Xenicals non-systemic mode of action, it has a safety and tolerability profile, which makes it appropriate for use in a wide range of people. This is particularly important within the area of overweight / obesity, where a significant number of people suffer from, or are at risk of cardiovascular disease.
