When to Take Orlistat - Timing Guidance
Take one orlistat capsule with each main meal containing fat - up to three times daily. You can take it immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you skip a meal or eat something fat-free, skip that dose. This timing helps the medication work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when lipase enzymes are most active during digestion.
Choosing Between Orlistat, Xenical and Alli
All three contain the same active ingredient but at different strengths. Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are clinically identical - generic orlistat simply costs less. Alli contains 60mg orlistat, offering a lower-strength option with typically milder side effects. Your prescriber will help determine which strength and supply length best suits your weight management goals and circumstances.
