Get Your Orlistat Prescription Online - Simple Process
Does Orlistat Affect Your Appetite?
No, orlistat does not increase appetite. Unlike appetite suppressants that work on brain chemistry, orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes. This blocks approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed, allowing it to pass naturally through your body. The medication acts in your gut, not your brain, so it doesn't interfere with hunger signals or appetite control mechanisms.
How Our Online Prescription Process Works
Getting your orlistat prescription online is straightforward. Complete our medical questionnaire covering your health history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched with tracked delivery. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from consultation to delivery.
Orlistat Products Available
We stock three orlistat options: Generic orlistat 120mg from £16.89 (£15.20 with EDM10) for a 2-week supply, rising to £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) for 12 weeks. Branded Xenical 120mg costs slightly more at £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10) for 2 weeks. Both contain identical active ingredients and work identically. Alli 60mg at half-strength is available from £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10) for a 4-week supply. All prices include the prescription - no additional consultation fees.
Why Orlistat Doesn't Increase Appetite
Orlistat's mechanism of action explains why it doesn't affect appetite. The medication inhibits pancreatic and gastric lipases in your small intestine, preventing these enzymes from breaking down dietary triglycerides into absorbable fatty acids and glycerol. This local action in the gut means approximately one third of fat calories aren't absorbed. Since orlistat isn't absorbed into your bloodstream in significant amounts, it doesn't reach appetite control centres in your brain or affect hormones that regulate hunger.
Starting Your Treatment
Following prescriber approval, take one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can skip that dose. Keep dietary fat to roughly 15g per meal to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. Most patients find that maintaining a lower-fat diet not only reduces side effects but also enhances weight loss results when combined with orlistat treatment.
