How Orlistat 120mg Works in Your Body
Orlistat 120mg works by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed by your digestive system. This prescription weight loss medication acts locally in your gut by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When these enzymes are blocked, the unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body rather than being stored as excess weight.
Unlike appetite suppressants that affect your brain, orlistat works directly in your digestive system without being significantly absorbed into your bloodstream. This targeted approach makes it a clinically proven option for weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Choose Your Orlistat Treatment Option
At EverydayMeds, we offer three clinically effective options to suit your preferences and budget. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective solution, starting from just £15.20 for a 2-week supply with code EDM10. For those who prefer branded medication, Xenical 120mg contains the identical active ingredient at £19.35 for 2 weeks. Alli 60mg offers a lower-strength alternative at £26.09 for 4 weeks.
All three medications work using the same mechanism - blocking fat absorption in your digestive system. The 120mg prescription-strength options block more dietary fat than the 60mg Alli, making them more suitable for people requiring stronger weight management support following clinical assessment.
Your Online Consultation Process
Purchasing orlistat online through EverydayMeds involves a straightforward 5-step process designed to ensure your safety and treatment suitability. First, complete our comprehensive online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. Our UK-licensed prescribers then review your information to determine whether orlistat is clinically appropriate for your circumstances.
If approved, your prescription is issued and sent directly to our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester. Your medication is then dispensed according to pharmaceutical standards and dispatched with next-day delivery. This entire process typically takes 24-48 hours, providing faster access than traditional NHS routes whilst maintaining the same regulatory standards.
Treatment Packages and Pricing
Our orlistat 120mg packages are designed for different treatment durations. A 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £29.69 with EDM10, providing excellent value for establishing your response to treatment. For longer-term weight management, our 12-week supply (252 capsules) offers the best value at £86.39 with discount code.
Xenical 120mg follows similar packaging with premium pricing for the branded option. Many patients choose to start with a 2-week supply to assess tolerance before ordering larger quantities. Remember, one capsule is taken with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily.
Supporting Your Weight Loss Success
Orlistat works most effectively when combined with a structured approach to diet and lifestyle. The medication is designed to support weight reduction alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet containing approximately 30% of calories from fat. This typically means around 15g fat per meal to minimise gastrointestinal side effects whilst maximising weight management benefits.
Our prescribers provide dietary guidance as part of your consultation, helping you understand how to optimise your treatment response. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime is recommended to replace fat-soluble vitamins that may be reduced during treatment.
