Usage An antiobesity agent. A pancreatic lipase inhibitor. Antiobesity agent. Tetrahydrolipstatin (orlistat) is a semi-synthetic derivative of lipstatin, a metabolite isolated from Streptomyces toxytricini. Tetrahydrolipstatin acts as a potent, irreversible inhibitor of pancreatic lipase. In vivo, it blocks the absorption of triglycerides while allowing fatty acid absorption. Tetrahydrolipstatin is widely used for the treatment of obesity.

2. Description:
Orlistat (also known as tetrahydrolipstatin) is a drug designed to treat obesity.Its primary function is preventing the absorption of fats from the human diet by acting as a lipase inhibitor,
thereby reducing caloric intake.
It is intended for use in conjunction with a healthcare provider-supervised reduced-calorie diet.
Orlistat is used for the treatment of obesity. The amount of weight loss achieved with orlistat varies. In one-year clinical trials, between 35.5% and 54.8% of subjects achieved a 5% or greater decrease in body mass,
although not all of this mass was necessarily fat. Between 16.4% and 24.8% achieved at least a 10% decrease in body fat.
After orlistat was stopped, a significant number of subjects regained weight-up to 35% of the weight they had lost.
The incidence of type 2 diabetes in an obese population over four years is decreased with orlistat (6.2%) compared to placebo (9.0%).
Longterm use of orlistat also leads to a modest reduction in blood pressure (mean reductions of 2.5 and 1.9 mmHg in systolic and diastolic blood pressure respectively).
