How Orlistat Metabolism Works for Weight Management
Understanding Orlistat Metabolism and Fat Blocking
Orlistat's unique metabolism profile makes it an effective prescription weight loss treatment. Unlike appetite suppressants that work in the brain, orlistat acts locally in your digestive system. It inhibits lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat, preventing approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed into your body.
This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, reducing the calories you absorb from meals. The medication is not significantly absorbed into your bloodstream, which explains why most side effects are gastrointestinal rather than systemic.
Save 10% on Every Orlistat Order
Whether you're starting treatment or reordering your supply, code EDM10 gives you 10% off every single order. Our orlistat 120mg capsules start from £15.20 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules), while a 12-week supply (252 capsules) costs just £86.39 with your discount. Branded Xenical 120mg is available from £19.35 for 2 weeks, and Alli 60mg starts at £26.09 for a 4-week supply.
Choose Your Orlistat Treatment Option
All three products contain the same active ingredient but at different strengths. Generic orlistat 120mg offers excellent value, while Xenical 120mg provides the branded option at the same clinical strength. Alli 60mg contains half the dose, making it suitable for those preferring a lower-strength starting point.
Following an online clinical assessment by a UK-licensed prescriber, your chosen treatment is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and delivered discreetly to your address.
Consistent Savings for Ongoing Treatment
Weight management often requires ongoing support, which is why EDM10 works on every order - not just your first purchase. Save £9.60 on a 12-week supply of orlistat 120mg, or £12.90 on the same period of Xenical treatment. These savings add up significantly over time, making private prescription treatment more affordable.
