How Orlistat Tablets Work in Your Body
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed. The medicine inhibits lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing dietary fat breakdown. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, reducing calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Unlike appetite suppressants, orlistat acts locally in your gut rather than affecting your brain.
2-Week Supply - Perfect for Starting Treatment
Our 2-week orlistat supply (42 capsules) costs £16.89, or just £15.20 with EDM10 discount. This starter pack helps you assess how orlistat works with your body and dietary routine. Many patients begin with a shorter supply to understand the mechanism and adjust their fat intake accordingly. Taking one capsule with each main meal containing fat, this supply lasts approximately 14 days.
4-Week Supply - Popular Monthly Option
The 4-week supply (84 capsules) at £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) offers better value than two separate 2-week packs. This monthly supply suits patients who have established their routine and want convenient monthly ordering. Generic orlistat provides identical clinical effects to branded Xenical while saving approximately £9 compared to Xenical's 4-week price of £42.99.
8-Week Supply - Enhanced Value Option
Our 8-week supply (168 capsules) costs £63.99, reduced to £57.59 with EDM10 discount. This two-month supply offers excellent value for established users who understand how orlistat works with their diet plan. Patients save significantly compared to purchasing four separate 2-week supplies. The 8-week option provides treatment continuity while reducing ordering frequency.
12-Week Supply - Maximum Savings
The 12-week supply (252 capsules) delivers maximum value at £95.99, or £86.39 with EDM10. This three-month supply represents the best per-capsule cost and suits patients committed to longer-term treatment. Comparing generic orlistat to Xenical, patients save £29.70 on the 12-week supply while receiving identical clinical benefits.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Same Effect, Different Price
Both Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain identical active ingredients and work through the same mechanism. Xenical, manufactured by Roche, costs more due to branding. Generic orlistat delivers the same fat-blocking effect at significantly lower cost. All supplies require prescription following online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
