1	Verwon Says: [Moderator] Tuesday, 7/15/2008 6:26:11 PM The active ingredient in it is Orlistat, it was originally sold as prescription only under the brand name Xenical. As with any drug, it works for some people and it doesn't work for others, there is no way to know for sure unless you try it. It can cause some rather unpleasant side effects, so it is important to follow all usage directions carefully. The most common and bothersome is loose/oily stools, since the active ingredient binds to fat and prevents it from being absorbed by the body. This leads to other possible side effects such as fecal incontenence and flatulence. http://www.prescriptiondrug-info.com/drug_information_online.asp?title=Alli&page=1007809&ad=true
