Does Orlistat Make You Hungry? Understanding How It Works
Orlistat doesn't typically increase hunger because it works differently from appetite suppressants. Rather than affecting brain chemistry, orlistat acts locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This means approximately one third of the fat you eat passes through your body unabsorbed, reducing calorie intake without directly affecting hunger signals.
However, some patients report increased appetite when starting orlistat as part of their reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet plan. This may be related to dietary changes rather than the medication itself. Your prescriber will provide guidance on managing hunger alongside your weight management programme.
Online Prescription Process — Simple & Secure
Getting your orlistat prescription online is straightforward. Complete our medical questionnaire covering your health history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment and, if clinically appropriate, issues your prescription. Our Leicester-based pharmacy then dispenses and dispatches your medication with next-day delivery.
Choose from generic orlistat 120mg (£29.69 for 4 weeks with EDM10) or branded Xenical 120mg (£38.69 for 4 weeks with EDM10). Both contain identical active ingredients and work in exactly the same way — the main difference is cost.
Orlistat Pricing & Pack Options
Generic orlistat 120mg offers excellent value: 42 capsules (2 weeks) for £15.20, 84 capsules (4 weeks) for £29.69, 168 capsules (8 weeks) for £57.59, or 252 capsules (12 weeks) for £86.39 with code EDM10. Xenical 120mg is available at: 42 capsules for £19.35, 84 capsules for £38.69, 168 capsules for £78.29, or 252 capsules for £116.09 with EDM10.
All prices include your prescription consultation — there's no separate fee for the prescriber review. Use code EDM10 at checkout for 10% off every order.
Clinical Assessment & Suitability
Orlistat 120mg requires prescription following clinical assessment. It may be suitable for adults with BMI 30kg/m² or above, or BMI 28kg/m² or above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your prescriber will assess your individual circumstances and determine whether treatment is appropriate.
The medication must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. Most side effects are gastrointestinal and linked to dietary fat intake — keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) helps minimise these effects.
