Safe Orlistat and Laxative Use - Order with 10% Savings
Can You Take Laxatives with Orlistat?
Laxatives can typically be taken with orlistat, but the type of laxative and timing are important considerations. Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, which can sometimes affect bowel movements. Some patients find they need occasional laxative support, particularly when adjusting to treatment.

Which Laxatives Work Best with Orlistat?
Bulk-forming laxatives like psyllium husk are often preferred alongside orlistat as they work gently by adding fibre. Stimulant laxatives should be used cautiously and preferably after consulting your prescriber. Our UK-licensed healthcare professionals provide individual guidance on managing orlistat's gastrointestinal effects during your clinical assessment.
Timing Laxatives with Your Orlistat Routine
Take laxatives at different times from orlistat doses when possible. Since orlistat is taken with meals three times daily, spacing laxatives between meals may help avoid interactions. Always follow the specific guidance provided with your orlistat prescription and consult your prescriber before starting any new medications.
Long-term Savings for Regular Orlistat Users
The EDM10 code works for every purchase - new customers and returning customers alike. Order 8-week supplies of orlistat for £57.59 (saving £6.40) or choose 12-week packs at £86.39 (saving £9.60). Xenical users save even more: 12-week supplies cost £116.09 instead of £128.99. No loyalty schemes needed - just use EDM10 every time you order.
Managing Digestive Effects While Taking Orlistat
Orlistat's side effects are primarily gastrointestinal and directly related to dietary fat intake. Keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) significantly reduces both the need for laxatives and the severity of side effects. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime supports overall digestive health while using orlistat.
