This might be a bit of an icky question/thread, but I want to know!

Is it unexpected? Is it like actual tango or is there some solidness to it? Will I have plenty of time to get to a toilet!? Is it as orange as tango?!

I know that if I'm following a low fat diet then these side effects are minimal and that the tablets should be used as a deterrent rather than a solution, but I just don't want to get caught out somewhere - especially in my first few weeks of taking it!
 
Bless you! I really can't tell you cos luckily it never happened to me but I know someone will come along & tell you soon x
 
I have been on Xenical for one week now and was wondering this also! I have been ok so far (although strangely felt constipated a couple of times?) but I wondered how long, if I ate something bad, it would take for the side effects to come on and how long they'd last?
 
I havent had side effects this time but few years ago when I was on Xenical, I stupidly had a chicken nugget kids meal and about 15 mins later whoooshhhhhhh it was like an oil leak theres no stopping it. I had to get my mum to nip in and buy me baby wipes, clean underwear and trousers.
 
It started as a wee watery fart :eek: Then it all leaked out it was like cooking oil if you know what I mean
 
For weeks my ma was telling everyone about my oil spillage.. I was as we say in Belfast Scundered !!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:
 
It takes 24 hours for me . But it can take a couple of days. If you've only eaten something mildly fatty but your body still doesn't like it you'll get a kind of grumbly tummy and loose stools. But I'd it's real tango then it can be an oily fart or uncontrollable liquid that you cannot hold in. If I'd eaten something that I thought might have an effect I would wear sanitary towels but placed nearer the back of my knickers just in case :) thankfully it didn't happen often. When it did it was normally from something I just wasn't expecting it to come from. As I said in an earlier post its all trial and error as to what each person can eat

It wasnt a nice experience but then it was few years back when i first got them. I didnt understand the effects thot i cud eat n nowt would happen. This time i know wat to eat thanks to the advice here
 
I had thought awk it's only a kids meal lol. Xenical was relatively new and there wasn't a lot of info, I wouldn't intentionally eat lots of fat it was a one off, then doc gave me reductil but then they were took off the market, that one messy experience was more than enough for me, luckily I'm not a big takeaway lover so should be ok
 
I was lucky didn't have that effect, I lost weight as they suppressed appetite, they were linked to heart disease, SCAREY!!!!!!
 
Not to bad here thank goodness.. bit of rain but not really windy

Oooh I've heard about Reductil! My friend was on them! Apparently it made you really depressed and suicidal?!

I had them for 6 weeks before they were taken off the market but found they had zero effect, my nurse said it was bp problems & stroke they were linked to. Scary stuff....
