What is Cetislim (Cetilistat) used for?

Cetislim (Cetilistat) is an oral medication prescribed along with a balanced diet and regular exercise to treat patients suffering from severe obesity. It operates by preventing the absorption of some fats during digestion so that they may be eliminated from the body without being digested. This action allows fat deposits to be utilized by the body with exercise to reduce weight. This can also reduce the occurrence of cardiac conditions such as hypertension, angina, or risk of heart attacks. Your physician may prescribe this medicine to be used along with others or for the treatment of other unlisted conditions, as well.
