Choose Your Orlistat Supply Length & Start Treatment
How Orlistat Capsules Work in Your Body
Orlistat capsules work by blocking lipase enzymes in your digestive system that break down dietary fat. When you take orlistat with meals, approximately one third of the fat you eat cannot be absorbed and passes naturally through your body. This mechanism reduces calorie intake from fat, supporting weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Understanding this process helps you select the right supply duration for your treatment goals.
2-Week Supply - Perfect for Starting Treatment
A 2-week supply (42 capsules) lets you test how orlistat works for you before committing to longer treatment. Generic orlistat 2-week supply costs £16.89, or £15.20 with EDM10 discount. Xenical 2-week supply is £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This starter option helps you understand how the medication works with your diet and lifestyle before progressing to longer supplies.
4-Week Supply - Balanced Option for Ongoing Treatment
Our 4-week supply (84 capsules) offers excellent value for established treatment. Generic orlistat 4-week costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), while Xenical is £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Alli 60mg 4-week supply provides 42 capsules for £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10). This duration suits patients who want regular prescriber contact while maintaining consistent treatment.
8-Week Supply - Extended Treatment with Greater Savings
The 8-week supply (168 capsules for 120mg products, 84 for Alli) maximises convenience and value. Generic orlistat 8-week costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10) - saving over £6 compared to two 4-week orders. Xenical 8-week is £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10), while Alli 8-week costs £54.99 (£49.49 with EDM10). This option suits patients established on treatment who want fewer repeat orders.
12-Week Supply - Maximum Savings for Long-Term Treatment
Our 12-week supply (252 capsules) offers the best value for committed long-term treatment. Generic orlistat 12-week costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) - nearly £10 less than three separate 4-week orders. Xenical 12-week is £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). Alli 12-week provides 252 capsules for £129.99 (£116.99 with EDM10). This supply length suits patients who have successfully established their treatment routine and want maximum savings.
Which Supply Length Works Best for You?
Choose your supply length based on your treatment experience and commitment level. New patients often prefer 2-4 week supplies to assess how orlistat works with their lifestyle. Established patients typically choose 8-12 week supplies for convenience and savings. All pack sizes include the same high-quality medication - the difference is duration and cost-effectiveness. Your prescriber can advise on the most suitable supply length during your online consultation.
