Understanding Orlistat Side Effects and Ongoing Savings
Does Orlistat Cause Tiredness or Fatigue?
Fatigue is listed as an uncommon side effect of orlistat, potentially affecting up to 1 in 100 people taking the medication. However, tiredness while taking orlistat may have several causes. The medication works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, which can reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K). Vitamin deficiencies, particularly vitamin D, may contribute to feelings of fatigue.
Additionally, the reduced-calorie diet required alongside orlistat treatment may initially cause tiredness as your body adapts to lower calorie intake. If you experience persistent fatigue while taking orlistat, consult your healthcare professional who may recommend blood tests to check vitamin levels.

Managing Side Effects While Saving Money
Keep dietary fat intake low (approximately 15g per meal) to minimise gastrointestinal side effects and reduce any fatigue-related symptoms. Take a daily multivitamin at bedtime, at least 2 hours after your last orlistat dose, to maintain fat-soluble vitamin levels.
Order your multivitamins alongside orlistat and save 10% on your entire order with EDM10. Regular reorders ensure continuous treatment and ongoing 10% savings every time.
