Understanding Orlistat and Gastrointestinal Side Effects
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, which can lead to gastrointestinal side effects including diarrhea, loose stools, and urgent bowel movements. These effects occur because unabsorbed fat passes through the digestive system naturally. Our online prescription service connects you with UK-licensed prescribers who can assess your suitability for orlistat treatment and provide guidance on managing side effects effectively.
Managing Diarrhea While Taking Orlistat
The key to minimising diarrhea and other gastrointestinal effects is maintaining a low-fat diet of approximately 15g fat per meal. Side effects are directly related to fat intake - higher fat meals significantly increase the likelihood of loose stools and urgency. Most patients find that side effects reduce over time as they adapt to a lower-fat eating pattern. Your prescriber will provide detailed dietary guidance as part of your treatment plan.
Online Prescription Process for Orlistat
Our streamlined process makes accessing orlistat straightforward. Complete your online health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next-day delivery. The prescription is included in the price - no separate consultation fees.
