Why Understanding Orlistat's Mechanism Matters for Your Purchase
How Orlistat Works Without Your Gallbladder
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This mechanism occurs in your small intestine and doesn't require your gallbladder to function. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, reducing calorie intake from dietary fat. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 for 4 weeks with EDM10, while Xenical 120mg costs £38.69 for the same period.
Three Proven Options Available at EverydayMeds
