Understanding Orlistat Maximum Daily Dose
The maximum daily dose of orlistat is 360mg, taken as three separate 120mg capsules throughout the day. Each capsule should be taken with a main meal containing fat - one with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This dosing applies to both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg capsules. Taking more than the maximum daily dose will not increase effectiveness but may worsen side effects.
Private Prescription Advantages
Skip lengthy NHS waiting lists with EverydayMeds' private prescription service. Our UK-licensed prescribers can review your suitability for orlistat within hours, not weeks. Generic orlistat 120mg costs just £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical is £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both contain identical 120mg doses with the same clinical effect - the key difference is cost.
Orlistat Dosing Schedule
Take one 120mg capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. The timing is flexible - immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you miss a meal or eat a fat-free meal, skip that dose. Never exceed three capsules per day. Lower-strength Alli 60mg follows the same three-times-daily schedule but contains half the dose of prescription orlistat.
Why Choose Private Prescription?
NHS orlistat prescriptions require multiple GP appointments and strict eligibility criteria. Our private prescription route offers faster access through online clinical assessment. Complete your medical questionnaire, get prescriber approval, and receive next day delivery from our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy. Your prescription is included in the price - no separate consultation fees.
Product Options Available
Choose from generic orlistat 120mg (most cost-effective), branded Xenical 120mg (same active ingredient), or Alli 60mg (lower strength). All require clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers. Pack sizes range from 2-week supplies (42 capsules) to 12-week supplies (252 capsules), with automatic 10% savings using code EDM10. Free next day delivery included on all orders.
