Your Complete Fat Intake Guide Plus Exclusive Savings
How Much Fat Can You Eat on Orlistat?
When taking orlistat 120mg or Xenical, keeping fat intake to approximately 15g per meal significantly reduces gastrointestinal side effects. Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, but consuming high-fat meals increases the likelihood of oily stools and urgency. Spread your daily fat allowance (roughly 45g total) evenly across three main meals for optimal results. At EverydayMeds, our 4-week orlistat supply costs just £29.69 with code EDM10, helping you maintain effective treatment affordably.

Choosing Between Orlistat, Xenical and Alli
All three products support weight management when used alongside reduced-calorie, lower-fat diets. Generic orlistat 120mg offers identical clinical effects to branded Xenical at lower cost - 4-week supplies cost £29.69 versus £38.69 with EDM10. Alli 60mg provides half-strength dosing for those preferring gradual introduction. Each requires careful fat management: exceeding 15g fat per meal increases side effect likelihood regardless of product chosen. Our UK-licensed prescribers assess suitability during online consultation, ensuring appropriate treatment selection.
Managing Your Diet on Orlistat Treatment
Successful orlistat treatment requires consistent dietary discipline. High-fat meals trigger pronounced gastrointestinal effects including oily discharge and urgent bowel movements. Keep detailed food diaries tracking fat content, aiming for 30% maximum daily calories from fat sources. Take orlistat capsules immediately before, during, or within one hour of fat-containing meals. Skip doses when meals contain minimal fat. Consider daily multivitamin supplements taken at bedtime, as orlistat may reduce fat-soluble vitamin absorption.
