How Does Orlistat Work - And Does It Affect Appetite?
Orlistat works differently from appetite suppressants. Rather than affecting your brain or hunger signals, orlistat acts locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes. This blocks approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed, allowing unabsorbed fat to pass naturally through your body. The medication doesn't directly decrease appetite - its weight management support comes from reducing calorie absorption from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Online Prescription Process for UK Patients
Getting orlistat with an online prescription is straightforward through EverydayMeds. Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy and dispatched with next day delivery available. The prescription is included in the price - no separate GP appointment needed.
Orlistat Pricing and Options Available
We offer three orlistat options to suit different preferences and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg provides excellent value: 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £32.99, or £29.69 with discount code EDM10. Xenical 120mg is the branded version at £42.99 per month (£38.69 with EDM10). Both contain identical active ingredients and work the same way. For those preferring lower strength, Alli 60mg costs £54.99 for 8 weeks (£49.49 with EDM10). All prices include the online prescription consultation.
Clinical Assessment and Suitability
Orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our UK prescribers assess each application individually, considering your medical history and current health status. The medication must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Treatment suitability depends on individual circumstances and is determined through clinical assessment.
Managing Expectations and Side Effects
While orlistat doesn't suppress appetite, keeping meals lower in fat (approximately 15g per meal) helps minimise gastrointestinal side effects and supports effective weight management. Common side effects include oily stools, increased bowel frequency, and oily spotting - these are signs the medication is working by preventing fat absorption. Side effects typically reduce as you adapt your diet to lower fat intake.
