Orlistat works by inhibiting the absorption of dietary fats in the intestines. It accomplishes this by blocking the action of lipase, an enzyme responsible for breaking down fats for absorption. As a result, approximately 30% of the fat consumed in a meal is not absorbed and is excreted through bowel movements. This reduction in calorie absorption can lead to weight loss over time.
