Simple 3-Step Online Prescription Process
How to Get Your Orlistat Prescription Online
Getting orlistat tablets through EverydayMeds is straightforward. Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment and, where clinically appropriate, issues your prescription. Your treatment is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next-day delivery.
Orlistat Dosage and Usage Instructions
Orlistat 120mg capsules are taken three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Take one capsule immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you skip a meal or it contains no fat, you can skip that dose. The medication works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, so maintaining a lower-fat diet helps minimise side effects whilst maximising effectiveness.
Choose Your Orlistat Option
Generic orlistat 120mg offers excellent value, starting at £16.89 for 42 capsules (£15.20 with EDM10). For those preferring the branded option, Xenical 120mg contains the identical active ingredient at £21.50 for 42 capsules (£19.35 with EDM10). Both require the same online prescription process and deliver equivalent clinical results. Alli 60mg provides a lower-strength option at £28.99 for 42 capsules.
Clinical Assessment Requirements
Orlistat 120mg is prescription-only medicine requiring clinical assessment. Our UK-licensed prescribers evaluate your suitability based on BMI, medical history, and current medications. The medication may be appropriate for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions. Treatment must always be combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Managing Treatment Expectations
Orlistat works locally in your digestive system to reduce dietary fat absorption by approximately one third. Most patients experience gastrointestinal side effects initially, particularly with high-fat meals. These effects typically reduce as you adapt to a lower-fat diet. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime is recommended, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
