How Our Online Orlistat Prescription Process Works
Do Orlistat Tablets Really Work? The Clinical Evidence
Orlistat tablets really do work for weight management when used correctly. The medication works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, helping to reduce calorie intake as part of a structured weight management programme. Clinical studies demonstrate that orlistat can support weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Simple Online Prescription Process
Getting your orlistat prescription online couldn't be easier. First, complete our comprehensive health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber then reviews your information to assess whether orlistat treatment is clinically appropriate for you. If approved, your prescription is issued and your medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester. We offer next day delivery across the UK with discreet, secure packaging.
Orlistat Treatment Options and Pricing
We stock three orlistat options to suit different needs and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg capsules start from £16.89 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules), with 12-week supplies available for £95.99. Our branded Xenical 120mg contains the same active ingredient and dose, priced from £21.50 for 2 weeks up to £128.99 for 12 weeks.

Use code EDM10 to save 10% on every order - that's £86.39 for a 12-week supply of generic orlistat instead of £95.99.
Who May Be Suitable for Orlistat Treatment
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or those with a BMI of 28 or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your suitability is assessed individually by our qualified prescribers who review your medical history, current health status, and weight management goals. The online consultation ensures you receive appropriate clinical oversight without needing a face-to-face GP appointment.
Managing Treatment and Side Effects
Most orlistat side effects are gastrointestinal and directly linked to dietary fat intake. Keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) significantly reduces the likelihood of oily stools, spotting, or abdominal discomfort. These effects are actually signs that the medication is working by preventing fat absorption. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime helps maintain fat-soluble vitamin levels while on treatment.
