Why Orlistat Is a Good Choice for Weight Management
How Orlistat Works and Why It's Effective
Orlistat is a prescription weight loss medication that works by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, helping reduce calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Available as generic orlistat 120mg, branded Xenical 120mg, or lower-strength Alli 60mg, all three options provide clinically proven support for weight management. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect as Xenical at a significantly lower price.

Choosing Between Orlistat, Xenical, and Alli
Generic orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose, offering equivalent clinical effects. The main difference is price - generic orlistat can save you approximately £30 over a 12-week course compared to Xenical. Alli contains half the dose at 60mg, providing a lower-strength option with typically milder side effects.
All three options work best when combined with a diet containing no more than 30% of calories from fat. Higher fat meals increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects, while lower fat intake maximises both effectiveness and tolerability.
