Why Orlistat's Mechanism Makes It Worth Buying
How Orlistat Actually Works in Your Body
Orlistat doesn't make you feel sick in the traditional sense - it works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This means approximately one third of the fat you eat cannot be absorbed and passes through your body naturally. The "side effects" people experience are actually the unabsorbed fat leaving the system, proving the medication is working exactly as designed.
Why These Effects Prove Orlistat Is Effective
When patients experience oily stools, urgency, or fatty discharge, this is direct evidence that orlistat is blocking fat absorption successfully. Generic orlistat 120mg at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10) offers the same proven mechanism as branded Xenical but at significant savings. The gastrointestinal effects can be minimised by keeping meals low in fat - typically no more than 15g fat per meal.
Managing the Mechanism for Best Results
Understanding how orlistat works helps you use it effectively. Take one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. The lower your dietary fat intake, the fewer gastrointestinal effects you'll experience. Our 8-week supply (168 capsules) at £57.59 with code EDM10 gives you time to adapt your diet and see the mechanism working optimally.
Comparing Your Options at EverydayMeds
Generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients with the same fat-blocking mechanism. Orlistat costs £86.39 for 12 weeks compared to £116.09 for Xenical - a saving of nearly £30 for the same clinical effect. Alli 60mg at £49.49 for 8 weeks offers half the dose with typically milder effects, though it blocks less dietary fat.
