Mechanisam of Action Orlistat acts by binding covalently to the serine residue of the active site of gastric and pancreatic lipases. When administered with fat-containing foods, orlistat partially inhibits hydrolysis of triglycerides, thus reducing the subsequent absorption of monoaclglycerides and free fatty acids.
