Lipase inhibitors can be found naturally in plants and can also be produced as pharmaceutical drugs.Some lipase inhibitors have been identified in Panax ginseng. [5] [6] Some active compounds with chalcone scaffold found in Glycyrrhiza glabra, Cassia mimosoides, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Boesenbergia rotunda, apples and Morus alba also had strong effect against lipase.
SGLT2 inhibitors cause the loss of 60–100 grams (2.1–3.5 oz) glucose in the urine each day and are associated with a modest, sustained weight loss of 1.5–2 kilograms (3.3–4.4 lb) in people with type 2 diabetes.
Regular physical activity can help accelerate weight loss, improve metabolism and enhance the benefits of weight loss pills. Aim for 150 minutes per week (or about a half-hour five days a week).
Lipase inhibitors bind to lipases and inactivate the enzyme. That leads to excretion of the undigested fat with faeces. [12] The lipase inhibitors lipstatin and orlistat act locally in the intestinal tract. They are minimally absorbed in the circulation because of their lipophilicity. [7] Hence, they do not affect systemic lipases. [11]

The amount of weight loss achieved with orlistat varies. In one-year clinical trials, between 35.5% and 54.8% of subjects achieved a 5% or greater decrease in body mass, although not all of this mass was necessarily fat. Between 16.4% and 24.8% achieved at least a 10% decrease in body fat. [4]
In 2010, a phase 2 trial found cetilistat significantly reduced weight and was better tolerated than orlistat. [6] Takeda gained approval to market Cetilistat in Japan, but terminated the license agreement with Norgine in 2018. [7]
