Are You Aware There Are Fake Weight Loss Drugs on the Market?

In US were discovered fake versions of a well-known weight loss drug. You might be in danger if you buy weight loss drugs from unregulated websites.

Fake versions of Alli which contain unsafe levels of another prescription drug were found in US through online auction sites, said MHRA (the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency). FDA (the Food and Drug Administration in US) has been working with GlaxoSmithKline, a pharmaceutical manufacturer, following the report of counterfeit Alli.

There were no fake Alli drugs found in UK, but they might be available via the internet. Still, you can buy Alli over the counter with the genuine product that contains the active ingredient called orlistat.

Orlistat prevents the absorption of fats from diets, also reducing the calorie intake. You might consider visiting a dietitian before taking Alli. There are a few things, like side-effects, efficacy, and precautions, which you should know about.

Here is how you can distinguish the fake from the genuine product:

• a missing text like “sealed for your protection;”
• a missing Lot code on the outer packaging;
• small white pellets contained by the capsules were replaced with white powder.      

Weight loss drugs are not always the best solution. Combined with a regular workout and a low-calorie diet, however, might produce significant weight loss for obese people. The effect of weight loss drugs is to make people feel fuller after eating a small portion of food.
