Orlistat and Gallstones: What You Need to Know
If you have a history of gallstones, discussing orlistat with a qualified prescriber is essential before starting treatment. While orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, any history of gallbladder problems requires individual clinical assessment. Our UK-licensed prescribers review your complete medical history during the online consultation process.
Pack Sizes Available: Choose Your Treatment Duration
We offer comprehensive pack size options across all three orlistat formulations to suit different treatment plans and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective option, while branded Xenical offers the same clinical effect for those preferring the original formulation. Alli 60mg provides a lower-dose alternative.
Orlistat 120mg (Generic):
2 weeks (42 capsules): £16.89 → £15.20 with EDM10
4 weeks (84 capsules): £32.99 → £29.69 with EDM10
8 weeks (168 capsules): £63.99 → £57.59 with EDM10
12 weeks (252 capsules): £95.99 → £86.39 with EDM10
Xenical 120mg (Branded):
2 weeks (42 capsules): £21.50 → £19.35 with EDM10

Significant Savings on Longer Supplies
Choosing longer treatment courses offers substantial savings. The 12-week orlistat supply saves over £15 compared to buying multiple shorter packs, while the EDM10 discount code provides an additional 10% off every order. This makes the 12-week generic orlistat pack just £86.39 - exceptional value for three months of treatment.
For those preferring branded Xenical, the 12-week supply at £116.09 (with EDM10) represents significant savings versus shorter courses. Remember, orlistat works best when used consistently alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Clinical Assessment Process
Your online consultation includes specific questions about gallbladder history, previous gallstones, and current digestive health. Our prescribers can access your NHS medical records with consent to ensure comprehensive assessment. If orlistat is deemed unsuitable due to gallstone risk or other factors, alternative weight management options may be discussed.
How to Order Your Chosen Pack Size
Complete our online health questionnaire, ensuring you provide accurate information about any gallstone history. Select your preferred pack size and formulation. Following prescriber approval, your medication is dispensed by our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery in discreet packaging.
