Choose Your Orlistat Supply Length - Better Value on Longer Packs
Orlistat Pack Sizes: Find Your Perfect Supply Length
We offer flexible orlistat supply options to match your weight management journey. Our 2-week starter packs (42 capsules) cost £16.89, perfect for trying orlistat initially. The popular 4-week supply (84 capsules) at £32.99 provides a month's treatment, whilst our 8-week packs (168 capsules) at £63.99 offer better value. Our best-value 12-week supply (252 capsules) costs £95.99, saving you money on longer-term treatment. All prices include 10% discount with code EDM10.
Orlistat and Contraceptive Pill Compatibility
Orlistat 120mg works safely alongside all forms of hormonal contraception. Whether you take the combined contraceptive pill, mini pill, contraceptive patch, or vaginal ring, orlistat won't affect your contraceptive effectiveness. This fat absorption blocker works locally in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat without interfering with hormonal contraceptives absorbed into your bloodstream.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat: Same Effect, Different Prices
Both Xenical and generic orlistat contain identical 120mg orlistat doses with equivalent clinical effects. Generic orlistat offers significant savings: 4-week supplies cost £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) compared to Xenical's £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Whether you choose branded Xenical or cost-effective generic orlistat, both work identically alongside your contraceptive pill. Your prescriber will discuss which option suits your preferences and budget.
Why Choose Longer Supply Packs?
Longer orlistat supplies provide better value and treatment continuity. Our 12-week packs save you over £10 compared to buying three separate 4-week supplies. Plus, EDM10 discount code saves an additional 10% on every order size. Orlistat works best as part of ongoing weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Longer supplies ensure consistent treatment without frequent reordering, supporting your weight management goals more effectively.
Online Prescription Process for All Pack Sizes
Order any orlistat pack size through our streamlined online consultation. Complete our medical questionnaire covering your weight management history, current medications including contraceptive pills, and treatment goals. Our UK-licensed prescribers review applications same-day, issuing prescriptions where clinically appropriate. All pack sizes qualify for next-day delivery from our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy, with prescriptions included in the stated price.
Taking Orlistat With Your Contraceptive Pill
Take orlistat exactly as prescribed: one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. Your contraceptive pill routine remains unchanged. Some patients prefer taking orlistat before meals, others during eating - both work effectively. If you miss a meal or eat a fat-free meal, skip that orlistat dose. Your contraceptive protection continues normally throughout orlistat treatment, with no timing restrictions between medications.
