• Obesity rates have seen a dramatic increase globally, significantly influencing the orlistat market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), as of 2022, 1 in 8 people worldwide were living with obesity, with adult obesity rates more than doubling since 1990 and quadrupling among children and adolescents aged 5 to 19 years. Specifically, 2.5 billion adults were overweight, and 890 million of these were classified as obese. This rapid rise in obesity has heightened public awareness of its associated health risks, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and various cancers. This increased awareness is driving demand for effective weight management solutions like orlistat, which is known to help reduce the absorption of dietary fats.
• Government initiatives aimed at managing obesity are crucial drivers of the orlistat market. The World Health Organization (WHO) has been a leading force in this regard, implementing the WHO Acceleration Plan to Stop Obesity. This plan, endorsed by the 75th World Health Assembly in 2022, is designed to stimulate and support multi-sectoral action at the country level. It emphasizes scaling up proven policies and strategies to tackle the obesity epidemic globally. As of 2023, 31 governments have adopted the plan, implementing core interventions such as promoting breastfeeding, regulating food marketing to children, and integrating obesity prevention into primary health care systems.
• The shift of orlistat from a prescription-only medication to an over the counter (OTC) product in many regions has significantly expanded its market reach. This change allows individuals to access orlistat more conveniently, increasing its popularity as a weight loss aid. Pharmacies, including online platforms, have capitalized on this trend by promoting OTC orlistat products extensively. Marketing campaigns targeting weight-conscious consumers have heightened the visibility and appeal of these products. The easier accessibility and broader consumer base are key factors driving the growth of the OTC orlistat market, making it a more attractive option for those seeking immediate weight loss solutions​. According to the Consumer Healthcare Products Association, approximately 81% of adults in the U.S. use OTC medicines as a first response to minor ailments, highlighting the preference for accessible and convenient healthcare options without needing a prescription​.

Product Description

One diet drug, orlistat, is now approved to treat obesity. It works in your intestines to block the absorption of fats from the foods you eat—by acting in a much different way than the other medicines. When used in conjunction with a low-calorie diet and exercise, it's supposed to help minimize the amount of fatty food a person consumes, which can decrease body weight. Xenical, which is the prescription form, is advised for those people with overweight who also have other risk factors including, orlistat works by inhibiting pancreatic lipase, an enzyme needed by the small intestines to break down the triglycerides. Action of the lipase is inhibited, meaning the triglycerides are undigested, which otherwise would have been absorbed as free fatty acids, hence leading to decreased calorie intake and reduced absorption of fat. Clinical investigations have shown that orlistat can significantly reduce weight and improve cardiovascular risk factors when used in addition to a complete weight control program. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal problems, such as bloating and greasy stools.
