How Prescription Orlistat Supports Weight Management
Orlistat works by blocking the absorption of approximately one third of dietary fat in your digestive system. This prescription weight loss medication inhibits lipase enzymes in the gut, allowing unabsorbed fat to pass naturally through the body. When used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity, orlistat may help support weight management in eligible adults. The medication acts locally in the digestive system rather than affecting the brain, making it different from stimulant-based weight loss treatments. Clinical assessment determines suitability based on BMI and individual health circumstances.
Orlistat vs Xenical: What's the Difference?
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose, providing clinically equivalent effects. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers savings of approximately £9 per month compared to branded Xenical. Some patients prefer branded Xenical while others choose generic orlistat for value. Alli 60mg contains half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat, making it a lower-strength option. All three products require the same dietary approach: keeping fat intake to approximately 15g per meal to minimise gastrointestinal side effects while maximising weight management support.
Online Prescription Process
Buying orlistat online through EverydayMeds follows a regulated process ensuring safety and compliance. Complete our online health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Our GPhC-registered pharmacy then dispenses and dispatches your medication with discreet next day delivery. This private prescription service eliminates GP waiting times while maintaining the same regulatory standards. The prescription cost is included in our pricing - no separate consultation fees apply.
Safety and Side Effects
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects. Most are gastrointestinal and directly related to dietary fat intake. Common effects include oily stools, urgent bowel movements, and flatulence with discharge. These side effects can be significantly reduced by keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal). Side effects often decrease over time as diet adapts. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime is recommended as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Always follow guidance from your healthcare professional and seek medical advice if side effects are severe or persistent.
