Why Choose Prescription Weight Loss Treatment?
Understanding Xenical Drug and Orlistat for Weight Loss
Xenical drug contains orlistat 120mg, a prescription-only lipase inhibitor that works locally in your digestive system. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, orlistat blocks approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed into your body. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your digestive system. This mechanism may help reduce calorie intake from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Same Effect, Different Price
Both Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical doses. The clinical effect is equivalent - the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat 4-week supply costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Some patients prefer branded Xenical, others choose generic orlistat for value. Your prescriber can help you decide which option suits your needs and budget best.
Who May Be Suitable for Prescription Weight Loss Treatment
Orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30kg/m² or above, or 28kg/m² or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Treatment suitability is assessed individually through our online clinical consultation.

Supporting Your Weight Management Success
Prescription orlistat works best when combined with a structured approach to diet and lifestyle. Keep your daily fat intake to approximately 30% of calories, spread evenly across three main meals. This helps maximise the medication's effectiveness whilst minimising gastrointestinal side effects. A daily multivitamin supplement is recommended, taken at bedtime. Regular monitoring of your progress helps ensure optimal results from your weight management programme.
