How Orlistat Works - Order with 10% Off EDM10
Understanding Orlistat's Mechanism of Action
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed into your body. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, helping reduce calorie intake when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Unlike stimulants, orlistat acts locally in the gut without affecting your brain or central nervous system.

Clinical Effectiveness and Fat Blocking Action
Orlistat's mechanism targets pancreatic and gastric lipases, the enzymes responsible for breaking down triglycerides into absorbable fatty acids. By blocking these enzymes, orlistat prevents approximately 30% of dietary fat absorption. This process is dose-dependent - the 120mg prescription strength in orlistat and Xenical provides maximum effectiveness, while Alli's 60mg dose offers gentler fat-blocking action. The medication works best when each meal contains no more than 15g of fat.

Comparing Your Options with EDM10 Savings
Generic orlistat 120mg provides identical clinical effects to branded Xenical at lower cost. With EDM10, an 8-week orlistat supply costs £57.59 compared to £78.29 for Xenical - saving £20.70 while receiving the same fat-blocking mechanism. Both require prescription following clinical assessment. Alli 60mg offers an alternative with half the active ingredient dose, costing £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10. All three products work through the same lipase inhibition mechanism.
