Why Orlistat's Mechanism Makes It Worth Buying
How Orlistat 120mg Works in Your Body
Orlistat works through a targeted mechanism that blocks approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume from being absorbed by your body. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on your brain, orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. This unabsorbed fat then passes naturally through your body, reducing the calories absorbed from meals. At EverydayMeds, you can access this proven mechanism from £29.69 for a 4-week supply of generic orlistat 120mg with code EDM10.
Orlistat vs Xenical: Same Mechanism, Better Value
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients and work through the same fat-blocking mechanism. The clinical effect is equivalent - both block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. However, choosing generic orlistat at £29.69 per month saves you £9 compared to Xenical at £38.69 monthly (with EDM10). For 12-week supplies, generic orlistat costs £86.39 versus Xenical at £116.09 - a significant saving of nearly £30 whilst receiving identical clinical benefits.
Why This Mechanism Supports Weight Management
The fat-blocking mechanism makes orlistat particularly effective when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Since orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat calories, maintaining lower fat intake per meal (around 15g fat) maximises benefits whilst minimising gastrointestinal side effects. This creates a dual benefit: reduced calorie absorption from fat plus encouragement to maintain healthier eating habits. Our online prescription service makes accessing this proven mechanism straightforward, with UK-licensed prescribers assessing your suitability through a comprehensive health questionnaire.
