Orlistat and Birth Control: What You Need to Know
If you're considering orlistat for weight management while using birth control, you'll be reassured to know that orlistat doesn't directly interfere with hormonal contraceptives. Orlistat works locally in your digestive system to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption - it doesn't affect hormone levels or contraceptive effectiveness. However, there's one important consideration: if you experience severe diarrhoea from eating high-fat meals while taking orlistat, this could potentially reduce absorption of oral contraceptive pills.

Managing Birth Control While Taking Orlistat
The key to avoiding any potential issues is following a lower-fat diet while taking orlistat. When you keep meal fat content to approximately 15g per meal, you'll minimise gastrointestinal side effects like diarrhoea that could theoretically affect pill absorption. If you do experience severe diarrhoea within 3-4 hours of taking your contraceptive pill, consult your healthcare provider about additional contraceptive precautions.
Choose Your Orlistat Product with Confidence
All three options available at EverydayMeds work by the same mechanism - blocking lipase enzymes in your gut. Generic orlistat 120mg offers the best value at £29.69 per month with EDM10, while Xenical provides the branded option at £38.69 monthly. Alli 60mg at half-strength may suit those preferring a gentler starting dose at £26.09 for four weeks with your EDM10 discount.
