Weight-loss pills may be able to assist you in your effort to lose weight and live a healthier lifestyle. Consult with your physician before taking any weight-loss supplements or aids.
Alli
The majority of diet pills work by speeding your metabolism or suppressing your appetite, but the Alli pill blocks the absorption of fat in your body, according to Askmen.com. In its full strength the drug is known as Xenical; Alli is the only diet pill that is considered to be a pharmaceutical medication that is sold for over-the-counter use. Askmen.com included Alli on its list or recommended diet pills for men because of the way that it works; Alli interferes with your body's ability to absorb fat by affecting the enzyme lipase. The pill won't block all fat, and Askmen.com warns of possibly embarrassing digestive troubles that may occur, including gas and diarrhea. But if directions are followed, Askmen.com reports that men should see favorable results with this weight-loss pill.
Meridia
Askmen.com reports that Meridia, or Sibutramine, can reduce your desire and cravings for sugary, salty and starchy snacks, such as doughnuts, pizza, pretzels and beer.

In most cases, when you eliminate or severely reduce the amount of sugars and starches that you eat, you will lose some weight. Dietspotlight.com reports that Meridia is intended for people who are overweight by 30 lbs. or more and that Meridia should be used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle and exercise plan or there is a chance that the effectiveness will lessen over time.
