Choose Your Orlistat Pack Size - Compare All Options
Understanding Orlistat Pack Sizes and Duration
Orlistat 120mg requires three capsules daily (one with each main meal), making pack size selection important for uninterrupted treatment. Our 42-capsule packs provide 2 weeks' supply at £15.20 with EDM10, perfect for first-time users. The 84-capsule option covers 4 weeks at £29.69, whilst our popular 168-capsule pack offers 8 weeks at £57.59. For maximum savings, choose 252 capsules providing 12 weeks' supply at just £86.39 with code EDM10.
What Happens If You Take 2 Orlistat Capsules?
Taking two Orlistat capsules instead of one won't improve weight loss results. Orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat at the prescribed dose - doubling the dose doesn't double this effect. Instead, you may experience increased gastrointestinal side effects including oily stools, urgent bowel movements, and abdominal discomfort. Always follow prescribed dosing: one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, maximum three daily. If you accidentally take two capsules, don't panic - simply return to normal dosing with your next meal.
Comparing Generic Orlistat vs Xenical Pack Sizes
Both generic Orlistat and branded Xenical contain identical 120mg orlistat, offering the same clinical effects. Our generic Orlistat 252-capsule pack costs £86.39 with EDM10, whilst equivalent Xenical costs £116.09 - saving you nearly £30 over 12 weeks. For shorter treatments, 84-capsule generic packs cost £29.69 versus £38.69 for Xenical. All options require online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers and include the same quality standards from our GPhC-registered pharmacy.
Maximising Value with Longer Supply Options
Longer supply packs offer significant per-capsule savings and ensure treatment continuity. Our 12-week supply reduces cost per capsule whilst minimising reorder frequency. Calculate your needs: most patients benefit from 8-12 week supplies when combined with structured dietary changes. Remember, Orlistat works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet with approximately 15g fat per meal. Our clinical team can advise on optimal supply length during your online consultation.
