A member asked:
Should i take orlistat? i heard it might cause liver and kidney damage. and can i take 120 mg orlistat powder with water? i have orlistat powder form

Orlistat: I think a better way to lose weight is to consult a registered dietician for a one time visit at your local hospital. You will be told your ideal weight, ideal amount of calories you should ingest considering your level of physical activity. Your eating habits will be critiqued and you'll be given a sample diet. Orlistat is pretty safe but messy. Monitor it with blood testing. Take it as directed.
