Slimex-O Capsule

Slimex-O Capsule is used to treat obesity and help in weight loss. It is to be used along with a low-calorie diet and regular physical exercise. It contains Orlistat, which decreases the absorption of fat from the food you eat. Thus, fat passes through the gut and is excreted in the faeces, which makes the body unable to use fat as a source of energy or convert it into fat tissue. Thus, it helps in weight loss.
