Which Orlistat Strength Is Right For You?
Current Stock Status - All Strengths Available
We maintain comprehensive stock levels of all orlistat products at our Leicester-based pharmacy. Generic orlistat 120mg capsules are available in 2-week (42 capsules), 4-week (84 capsules), 8-week (168 capsules), and 12-week (252 capsules) supplies. Branded Xenical 120mg offers the same clinical effect with identical active ingredient dosing. Alli 60mg provides a lower-strength option for those preferring half-dose treatment.
Orlistat Effectiveness - How It Works
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut through lipase enzyme inhibition. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, potentially reducing calorie intake from fat sources when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The medication acts locally in the digestive system rather than affecting the brain, making it different from appetite suppressants. Clinical effectiveness varies between individuals and depends on adherence to dietary guidance.

Who May Find Orlistat Effective
Following clinical assessment, orlistat may be prescribed for adults with BMI 30 kg/m² or above, or BMI 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Effectiveness is enhanced when combined with structured dietary changes, keeping meal fat content around 15g per meal to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. UK-licensed prescribers assess individual suitability through our online consultation process.
