How Orlistat Works - Expert Pharmacy Guidance
Does Orlistat Remove Fat Already Stored in Your Body?
Orlistat does not remove existing fat stored in your body. Instead, it works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed in your digestive system. As lipase inhibitor, orlistat acts locally in your gut to prevent fat digestion, allowing unabsorbed fat to pass naturally through your body. This mechanism supports weight management by reducing calorie intake from dietary fat when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
EverydayMeds Orlistat Products - GPhC-Registered Supply
Our Leicester-based pharmacy stocks three orlistat formulations, all requiring clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers.

How Our UK Online Prescription Service Works
Complete our online health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment to determine treatment suitability. If approved, your prescription orlistat is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched with next day delivery. This regulated process ensures you receive genuine medication through proper clinical oversight, without requiring a separate GP appointment.
Clinical Assessment for Weight Management Treatment
Orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our prescribers assess individual suitability based on your health circumstances. Treatment works best alongside dietary changes limiting fat intake to approximately 15g per meal, minimising gastrointestinal side effects whilst maximising therapeutic benefit.
