Final Thoughts
You may experience some or none of the side effects listed in this article. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to tell if any particular side effect (such as nausea) is caused by Xenical or other factors. Therefore, make sure to let your healthcare provider know if you develop any problems while taking the drug.
