I have looked online and found that alli stays in your system for 2-3 days.

However it only affects the fat absorption of meals that are eaten within a short time of taking the capsule. Only a very small amount of orlistat is absorbed into the bloodstream.

On the allow notebook it says that effects that may be seen in blood tests are

* Increased in the levels of some liver enzymes

* Effects on blood clotting in people warfarin of other blood-thinning (anti-coagulant) medicines.

(It is not known how frequently these effects occurr)




Do any of these have effects on a duo test , I'm really worried now
