🔹 How It Works
Degapride 120 mg Tablet works by blocking the action of digestive enzymes called lipases.
Lipases normally break down dietary fats so they can be absorbed by the body.
Orlistat reduces the activity of these enzymes.
This prevents some dietary fat from being absorbed and allows it to pass out of the body through stools.
Reduced fat absorption can support calorie reduction and weight management.
