How Orlistat 120mg Works for Weight Management
Orlistat 120mg is a prescription-only weight loss treatment that works by blocking the absorption of approximately one third of dietary fat in your digestive system. This lipase inhibitor acts locally in the gut, preventing fat-breaking enzymes from working effectively. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help support weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Same Active Ingredient, Different Prices
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical doses, providing clinically equivalent effects. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings. Our 4-week supply costs £29.69 with EDM10 compared to Xenical at £38.69, saving you approximately £9 per month. Both require the same clinical assessment and prescription from our UK-licensed prescribers.

Important Safety Information
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects, most commonly gastrointestinal effects related to unabsorbed fat. These can be minimised by keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal). Take one capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. A daily multivitamin is recommended, taken at bedtime. Always follow guidance from your prescriber and seek medical advice if you experience severe or persistent side effects.
