What happens if I overdose?<br />
www.phcoker.com<br />
A higher <strong>Orlistat</strong> <strong>dosage</strong> does not give you additional benefit. Instead, it could wreak<br />
havoc on your body. In case you take more than the recommended dose, you are<br />
likely to experience the usual gastrointestinal-related <strong>effect</strong>s. They are inconstinence<br />
in feces, oily feces, abdominal distress, gas, diarrhea, vomiting, and nausea. The <strong>side</strong><br />
<strong>effect</strong>s might be severe if you ate a high-fat meal and took an <strong>Orlistat</strong> overdose.<br />
If this happens, you ought to bring it to the doctor’s attention or call a poison<br />
helpline.<br />
What to avoid while taking <strong>Orlistat</strong>?<br />
Once you are on <strong>Orlistat</strong> treatment, you need to avoid taking a few things. The first is<br />
a very high-fat meal. The reason <strong>for</strong> avoiding this is because it could lead to<br />
unpleasant <strong>side</strong> <strong>effect</strong>s on your intestines and stomach. It doesn’t mean that you<br />
avoid consuming any fats; here are tips on how you can reduce the amount of fat you<br />
consume:<br />
<br />
You can choose to use a lower-fat cook-in sauce that has less than 5 grams of<br />
fat per 100 grams of sauce.<br />
<br />
Go <strong>for</strong> low-fat spreads, reduced-fat cheeses, low-calorie yogurts, and low-fat<br />
dairy foods, e.g., skimmed or semi-skimmed milk.<br />
<br />
Avoid adding fat when cooking; instead, you could microwave, bake, poach or<br />
grill.<br />
