Choose Your Prescription Weight Loss Treatment
Xenical Orlistat 120mg - Prescription Weight Loss UK
Xenical orlistat 120mg capsules represent a clinically studied approach to prescription weight loss in the UK. This MHRA-regulated treatment works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially reducing your calorie intake from fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
How Xenical Orlistat Works for Weight Management
Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, orlistat works locally in your gut without being significantly absorbed into your bloodstream. When you take one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat (up to three times daily), it may help reduce the amount of dietary fat your body absorbs. This mechanism can support weight management as part of a structured programme, though individual responses vary. The medication is most effective when meals contain no more than approximately 15g of fat to minimise gastrointestinal side effects.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Your Treatment Options
We offer both branded Xenical and generic orlistat 120mg capsules, both containing identical active ingredients at the same dose. Xenical 120mg costs £42.99 for a 4-week supply (£38.69 with EDM10), while generic orlistat 120mg offers the same clinical effect at £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), saving approximately £9 monthly. Some patients prefer branded Xenical, whilst others choose generic orlistat for value. Our UK-licensed prescribers will help determine which option suits your needs following your online clinical assessment.

Our GPhC-registered pharmacy ensures authentic medication through licensed UK pharmaceutical supply chains.
Online Clinical Assessment Process
Getting started is straightforward: complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 28 kg/m² with weight-related risk factors like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Treatment suitability is assessed individually, with your prescriber determining whether orlistat is right for your circumstances.
Safe and Effective Weight Loss Support
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects, most commonly gastrointestinal effects linked to dietary fat intake. These can be minimised by maintaining a lower-fat diet and are often signs the medication is working. Most patients find side effects reduce over time as their diet adapts. We recommend taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime to replace fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) that may be reduced. Always follow guidance from your healthcare professional and contact us if you experience persistent or severe side effects.
