How Orlistat Works + Your Savings with EDM10
Orlistat Mechanism of Action Explained
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed into your body. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, reducing your calorie intake from dietary fat. Unlike stimulants that act on the brain, orlistat works locally in the gut and is not significantly absorbed into your bloodstream. The mechanism is most effective when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet of no more than 30% calories from fat.

Our discount code EDM10 gives you 10% off every order - not just your first purchase. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £95.99 for 12 weeks, reduced to £86.39 with EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg costs £128.99 for 12 weeks, reduced to £116.09 with code EDM10. Alli 60mg (lower strength) costs £129.99 for 12 weeks, reduced to £116.99 with your discount. All three products work through the same fat-blocking mechanism, with 120mg prescription strength blocking more dietary fat than 60mg Alli.
Clinical Assessment Process
Following an online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers, orlistat 120mg or Xenical may be prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30kg/m² or above, or 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions. The assessment reviews your medical history, current medications, and suitability for treatment. Your EDM10 discount applies automatically at checkout once your prescription is approved. Our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester dispenses and dispatches your medication with next-day tracked delivery.
Maximising Your Orlistat Results
To minimise gastrointestinal side effects and maximise effectiveness, keep each meal to approximately 15g fat or less. Take one capsule with each main meal containing fat - up to three capsules daily. The fat-blocking mechanism means higher-fat meals increase the likelihood of oily stools and abdominal discomfort. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime helps replace fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) that orlistat may reduce absorption of.
