Medicinal Benefits

Debosity-60 Capsule contains Orlistat, an anti-obesity drug used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. Debosity-60 Capsule works in the small intestine and stomach and prevents the action of enzymes that breakdown fat which is absorbed by the body. Debosity-60 Capsule decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, making the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thereby, Debosity-60 Capsule helps in weight loss and reduces the risk of serious health problems.
