Alli Uses (Cont.)

Alli Uses in Children

Alli is not approved for use in people under the age of 18. Talk to your child's healthcare provider about the benefits and risks of using the drug in children. Alli can decrease the absorption of certain vitamins from the diet, which may be of greater concern in growing children.
 

Off-Label Alli Uses

On occasion, your healthcare provider may recommend Alli for something other than weight loss. This is called an "off-label" use. At this time, there are no universally accepted off-label Alli uses.
