Description
Orlistat is an anti-obesity drug normally prescribed to people to help them lose weight. It has well documented effectiveness in both weight reduction and maintenance of that weight loss. Further, weight loss with the use of xenical has been associated with a decrease in obesity-related cardiovascular risk factors. Because type 2 diabetes most commonly occurs in people who are over 40 and overweight, and because the risk of type 2 declines when people lose weight, a drug that helps people lose weight can help prevent type 2 diabetes.

Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes
According to Diabetes and Metabolism, treatment with xenical reduces the incidence of type 2 diabetes in people who already have impaired glucose tolerance. And in those who already have type 2 diabetes, it has enabled them to lower their required dose of metformin, sulfonylureas, and/or insulin. Of concern, because diabetes patients are at greater risk of cardiovascular disease, it was also noted that it helped reduce their total and LDL cholesterols and other lipid markers and decreased inflammation associated with heart attack risk.
In the Prevention of Diabetes in Obese Subjects study, xenical reduced the incidence of diabetes from 9% to 6% compared to placebo, according to Diabetes Care. However, analysis of three other trials reported a nonsignificant reduction in the incidence of type 2 from 2% to 0.6% with orlistat, as reported in the Archives of Internal Medicine.
Nonetheless, a report in the Journal of the American Board of Family Practitioners noted the benefits of orlistat in helping prevent diabetes in obese patients.
