Orlistat is an inhibitor of pancreatic lipase and is used as an anti-obesity drug in many countries. Therefore, this comparative, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orlistat in Japanese participants with excessive visceral fat accumulation and without dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension (“”metabolic diseases””). The study population included Japanese participants with excessive visceral fat accumulation (waist circumference ≥ 85 cm in males and ≥ 90 cm in females, which corresponds to a visceral fat area of 100 cm2) and without metabolic diseases. Both drugs were administered orally three times daily for 24 wk. Visceral fat area, s.c. fat area, waist circumference, body weight, body mass index, adverse reactions, laboratory tests, and blood pressure were regularly assessed. Visceral fat area, waist circumference, and body weight were significantly reduced in the orlistat group (mean ± standard error, – 13.50 ± 1.52%, – 2.51 ± 0.25%, and – 2.79 ± 0.30%, resp.) compared to the placebo group (- 5.45 ± 1.50%, – 1.55 ± 0.26%, and – 1.22 ± 0.28%, resp.) at the last assessment. Most adverse reactions were mild, and none were serious or severe. Orlistat administration reduced visceral fat area, waist circumference, and body weight in Japanese participants with excessive visceral fat and without metabolic diseases.
