How to Buy Orlistat Online UK - Complete Guide
Does Alli and Orlistat Actually Work?
Yes, Alli and orlistat are clinically proven to work by inhibiting lipase enzymes in the gut, which blocks approximately one third of the dietary fat you eat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the digestive system. Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain the same active ingredient and are prescription-only medicines, while Alli 60mg is a lower-strength version. All work best when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity.
Buy Orlistat Online UK - Three Options Available
Our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy offers three orlistat options with fast UK delivery. Generic Orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective option, with 84 capsules (4-week supply) costing £32.99 or £29.69 with code EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg offers the same clinical effect for £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10) for the same quantity. Alli 60mg at half strength costs £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10) for a 4-week supply. All prices include online consultation and prescription from UK-licensed prescribers.
Complete Online Ordering Process
Buying orlistat online is straightforward through our regulated service. Complete our online health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your application and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Our GPhC-registered pharmacy then dispenses and dispatches your medication with next day tracked delivery across the UK. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from application to delivery.
Clinical Assessment and Prescription Requirements
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg require prescription following clinical assessment. Our UK-licensed prescribers assess suitability based on BMI, medical history, and individual circumstances. Generally, orlistat may be suitable for adults with BMI 30 or above, or BMI 28 or above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Alli 60mg has different requirements. Treatment suitability is determined individually - not everyone will be eligible.
Dosing and How to Take Orlistat
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are taken as one capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Take immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you miss a meal or eat a fat-free meal, skip that dose. Alli 60mg follows the same timing but at half the strength. Keep dietary fat to approximately 15g per meal to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. A multivitamin supplement is recommended, taken at bedtime.
Expected Side Effects and Management
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects, most commonly gastrointestinal effects directly related to dietary fat intake. Very common side effects include oily or fatty stools, urgent bowel movements, and oily spotting. These effects are more likely with high-fat meals and typically reduce as your diet adapts. Keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) significantly reduces side effects. Side effects indicate the medication is working by preventing fat absorption.
