Fast Access to Orlistat - Who Qualifies for Treatment?
Who Can Take Orlistat? Quick Eligibility Check
Orlistat may be suitable for adults aged 18 or over who meet specific clinical criteria. Following an online assessment, UK-licensed prescribers evaluate eligibility based on BMI and individual health circumstances. Adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above may be considered for treatment, as well as those with a BMI of 28 kg/m² or above who have weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
With EverydayMeds' next day delivery service, eligible patients can receive their prescription orlistat quickly and discreetly. Orders placed before 2pm are dispatched the same day for next working day delivery across the UK.
Fast Delivery Orlistat Options and Pricing
Choose from three clinically proven options, all available with next day delivery. Generic orlistat 120mg offers the most cost-effective choice, starting from £15.20 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules) with code EDM10. The 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £29.69 with discount, whilst the 12-week supply (252 capsules) provides excellent value at £86.39.
Xenical 120mg, the branded version containing identical active ingredient, starts from £19.35 for 42 capsules with EDM10 discount. Both products work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Alli 60mg, the lower-strength option, is available from £26.09 for a 4-week supply with EDM10 discount, offering a gentler introduction to orlistat therapy.

Who Should Not Take Orlistat - Important Safety Information
Certain individuals should not take orlistat and require alternative weight management approaches. These include anyone under 18 years, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and those with chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis. People with allergies to orlistat or any ingredients should also avoid treatment.
Patients taking ciclosporin, warfarin, or anticonvulsants require careful prescriber assessment due to potential interactions. Those with kidney stones or taking levothyroxine need individual evaluation. Your prescriber will assess all medications and health conditions during the online consultation to ensure orlistat is appropriate for you.
Maximising Results While Minimising Side Effects
Orlistat works most effectively when combined with a structured diet containing no more than 30% calories from fat. This approach not only optimises weight management results but significantly reduces gastrointestinal side effects such as oily stools or urgent bowel movements.
Most side effects are directly related to dietary fat intake - keeping meals to approximately 15g fat each helps minimise these effects. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime is recommended, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
