How Our Online Prescription Process Works
Understanding How Orlistat Tablets Work
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, supporting weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The medication acts locally in the gut rather than affecting your brain, making it different from appetite suppressants.
Online Prescription Service - Simple 3-Step Process
Our streamlined online consultation eliminates the need for GP appointments. First, complete our comprehensive health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. Next, a UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines clinical suitability for orlistat treatment. Finally, if approved, your prescription is dispensed by our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy and dispatched for next-day delivery.
Orlistat Treatment Options and Pricing
We offer both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg - both contain identical active ingredients and provide the same clinical effects. Generic orlistat 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £32.99, reduced to £29.69 with EDM10 discount code. Xenical 4-week supply costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). For those preferring lower-strength options, Alli 60mg 4-week supply is available at £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10).
Clinical Assessment and Suitability
Orlistat 120mg requires prescription following clinical assessment by qualified healthcare professionals. Treatment may be suitable for adults with BMI 30kg/m² or above, or BMI 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like diabetes or hypertension. Our prescribers evaluate individual circumstances including medical history, current medications, and treatment goals to determine appropriate care pathways.
What to Expect During Treatment
Orlistat works best when meals contain no more than 15g fat each, spread across three daily doses. Common gastrointestinal effects include oily stools and increased bowel frequency - these indicate the medication is working and typically reduce when dietary fat intake remains low. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime helps maintain fat-soluble vitamin levels during treatment.
