Correct Dosage Instructions & Ongoing Savings
How to Take Orlistat 120mg Correctly
Orlistat 120mg capsules should be taken one capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Take each capsule immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can skip that dose. Never exceed three capsules per day. With code EDM10, our generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 for 84 capsules (4 weeks), compared to £38.69 for branded Xenical - both contain identical active ingredients.
Pack Sizes and Ongoing Savings
Every order qualifies for 10% off with EDM10, whether you're ordering for the first time or reordering regularly. Our 42-capsule pack (2 weeks) costs £15.20 with EDM10, perfect for trying orlistat. The 168-capsule pack (8 weeks) offers better value at £57.59 with your discount, while the 252-capsule supply (12 weeks) costs £86.39 with EDM10 - ideal for established patients. Returning customers simply use EDM10 again on each order.
Timing and Diet Guidelines
Take orlistat capsules with meals containing approximately 15g fat or less to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. The medication works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, so keeping meals lower in fat reduces the likelihood of oily stools or urgent bowel movements. Spread your daily fat intake evenly across three main meals rather than consuming high-fat meals, which significantly increase side effects.
Ordering Process and Regular Supply
Complete our online clinical assessment for review by a UK-licensed prescriber. Once approved, your prescription orlistat is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched for next day delivery. Returning patients can reorder using the same streamlined process, applying EDM10 for 10% off each time. No loyalty scheme needed - just use the code every time you order.
Generic vs Branded Options
Our generic orlistat 120mg provides identical clinical effects to branded Xenical at a lower cost. Both contain orlistat 120mg and work by the same mechanism. With EDM10, generic orlistat costs £86.39 for 12 weeks versus £116.09 for Xenical. Some patients prefer branded options while others choose generic for value - the choice is yours during your clinical assessment.
