Save 10% While Managing Your Fat Intake on Orlistat
How Much Fat Can You Eat on Orlistat?
When taking orlistat, keeping your fat intake to approximately 15g per meal (around 45g daily) helps maximise treatment effectiveness while minimising gastrointestinal side effects. Orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, so lower-fat meals mean fewer side effects. With our EDM10 code, you save 10% on every order - making your 4-week orlistat supply just £29.69 instead of £32.99, while 12-week supplies cost £86.39 instead of £95.99.
Understanding Orlistat and Dietary Fat
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your gut, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which can cause oily stools and urgency if you eat high-fat meals. Spreading your daily fat intake evenly across three main meals - roughly 15g fat per meal - significantly reduces these effects while maintaining orlistat's weight management benefits.
Your 10% Savings on Every Orlistat Order
Our EDM10 discount applies to every order - whether you're starting treatment or reordering. Orlistat 120mg for 8 weeks costs £63.99, reduced to £57.59 with EDM10. Choose branded Xenical if you prefer - 8 weeks costs £86.99, reduced to £78.29 with your discount. For those preferring lower-strength treatment, Alli 60mg for 8 weeks costs £54.99, just £49.49 with EDM10. Every reorder saves you 10% automatically.
Managing Fat Intake for Treatment Success
Successful orlistat treatment combines the medication with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Aim for no more than 30% of daily calories from fat, distributed across three main meals. High-fat meals (above 15g fat) significantly increase the likelihood of oily stools, urgency, and abdominal discomfort. Planning meals around lean proteins, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates helps maintain the fat limits while supporting your weight management goals.
Reorder Savings and Prescription Process
Following online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers, suitable patients receive their orlistat prescription dispensed by our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy. Your 10% discount applies immediately and to every future order - no minimum spend, no loyalty requirements. Whether ordering 2-week supplies to start (orlistat £15.20 with EDM10) or 12-week supplies for longer treatment (£86.39 with EDM10), your savings continue with every reorder.
Supporting Your Orlistat Journey
Taking orlistat with meals containing less than 15g fat helps avoid the gastrointestinal effects while allowing the medication to support your weight management. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can skip that orlistat dose. Remember to take a daily multivitamin at bedtime (at least 2 hours after your last orlistat capsule) as the medication may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
