Uni-Cal 120 mg Caps 30'S For Weight Loss
Uni-Cal contains Orlistat, which helps people lose weight with a low-calorie, low-fat diet and exercise.
Orlistat is in a class of medications called lipase inhibitors. It works by preventing fat from being absorbed in the intestines. This unabsorbed fat is then removed from the body in the stool.
Uni-Cal should be used under doctor supervision in overweight people and in with people who have weight-related medical problems. Uni-Cal also prevents gaining back the weight you have lost.
