Choose Your Orlistat Supply Length: Complete Guide
2-Week Supply: Perfect for Starting Treatment
The 2-week supply (42 capsules) is ideal for first-time users wanting to assess tolerance before committing to longer treatment. Generic orlistat costs £16.89, or £15.20 with EDM10 discount. Xenical branded version costs £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This shorter supply allows you to experience how orlistat works with your dietary routine whilst minimising initial investment. Most patients find 2 weeks sufficient to determine whether the gastrointestinal side effects are manageable with a lower-fat diet.

8-Week Supply: Enhanced Convenience and Savings

Which Supply Length is Right for You?
Consider your treatment goals and budget when selecting pack size. New users often prefer 2-week supplies initially, progressing to longer supplies once tolerance is established. Established users typically choose 8 or 12-week supplies for maximum savings and convenience. Remember, all orlistat strengths work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Your prescriber can advise on the most appropriate treatment duration during your online consultation.
