Why Choose EverydayMeds for Weight Loss Treatment?
Prescription Weight Loss Treatment: Orlistat and Xenical
When you're looking to buy Xenical in the UK, it's important to understand your options for prescription weight loss treatment. Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg both contain the same active ingredient - orlistat - which works by blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your digestive system, potentially supporting weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
At EverydayMeds, we offer both branded Xenical and generic orlistat options. Our 4-week supply of generic orlistat costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10 discount), whilst branded Xenical 4-week supply is £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both products require a prescription following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
How Orlistat Weight Loss Tablets Work
Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor that acts locally in your digestive system. Unlike stimulant-based treatments, orlistat doesn't affect your brain or central nervous system. Instead, it works by inhibiting enzymes called lipases that are responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When these enzymes are blocked, approximately one third of the fat from your meals cannot be absorbed and is eliminated naturally from your body.
This mechanism may help reduce your overall calorie intake from dietary fat, supporting your weight management goals when used as part of a comprehensive programme including dietary changes and increased activity. Individual responses vary, and the treatment works best when combined with meals containing no more than approximately 15g of fat each.
Orlistat vs Xenical: Choosing the Right Option
Many patients wonder about the difference between generic orlistat and branded Xenical when buying weight loss tablets in the UK. Both contain identical active ingredients at the same 120mg dose, offering clinically equivalent effects. The main difference is cost - generic orlistat provides significant savings whilst delivering the same therapeutic benefits.
Our generic orlistat 8-week supply costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10), compared to Xenical 8-week supply at £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10) - a saving of over £20. We also stock Alli 60mg, the lower-strength version, for those preferring to start with a reduced dose.
