Choose Your Orlistat Weight Loss Treatment Option
Prescription Weight Loss Support with Orlistat
Orlistat may help support your weight management goals by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. Available as generic orlistat 120mg capsules, branded Xenical 120mg, or lower-strength Alli 60mg, each option works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in the digestive system. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, potentially reducing calorie intake from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Compare Your Treatment Options
Generic orlistat 120mg offers excellent value at £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), providing the same clinical effect as branded alternatives. Xenical 120mg, manufactured by Roche, costs £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10) and contains identical active ingredients. For those preferring a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg provides half the dose at £54.99 for 8 weeks (£49.49 with EDM10). All options require the same commitment to dietary changes for optimal results.
Online Prescription Process
Our streamlined process begins with completing a comprehensive online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information to assess suitability for orlistat treatment. Where clinically appropriate, your prescription is issued and dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester. Treatment is subject to prescriber approval and individual clinical assessment.
Treatment Suitability and Safety
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or those with a BMI of 28 or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Treatment suitability is determined through individual clinical assessment. Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects, primarily gastrointestinal effects that can be minimised by keeping dietary fat intake low (approximately 15g per meal). Most side effects are linked to dietary fat intake and reduce as your diet adapts.
Maximising Your Treatment Success
Orlistat works best when combined with a structured approach to weight management. Spread your daily fat intake evenly across three main meals, aiming for no more than 30% of daily calories from fat. Take one capsule with each main meal containing fat, immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If a meal contains no fat, the dose can be skipped. Consider a daily multivitamin supplement taken at bedtime, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
