Safe Orlistat Dosing From UK Registered Pharmacy
What Is the Safe Daily Dose of Orlistat?
The safe, clinically approved dose of prescription orlistat is one 120mg capsule taken three times daily with each main meal containing fat. This means a maximum of 360mg orlistat per day (3 × 120mg). Our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester supplies orlistat following this standard dosing protocol, ensuring you receive the correct strength as prescribed by UK-licensed healthcare professionals. Each 84-capsule pack provides a 4-week supply at £32.99, or £29.69 with our EDM10 discount code.
Why Choose EverydayMeds for Safe Orlistat Supply?
As a fully registered UK pharmacy, EverydayMeds operates under strict MHRA regulations and GPhC standards. Our qualified prescribers assess each patient individually to determine whether orlistat 120mg is safe and appropriate for their circumstances. We stock both generic orlistat 120mg (from £16.89 for 2 weeks) and branded Xenical 120mg (from £21.50 for 2 weeks), both containing identical active ingredients at the safe therapeutic dose. Every prescription undergoes clinical review before our Leicester pharmacy dispenses your medication.
Safe Timing and Administration
For maximum safety and effectiveness, take each orlistat 120mg capsule immediately before, during, or up to one hour after meals containing fat. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can safely skip that dose. Never exceed three capsules per day or take extra doses to "catch up" - this does not improve effectiveness but may increase side effects. Our 8-week supply (168 capsules) at £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10) provides excellent value while maintaining this safe dosing schedule.
Lower-Strength Alternative: Alli 60mg
For those preferring a lower starting dose, we also supply Alli 60mg capsules - half the strength of prescription orlistat. The safe dose remains three capsules daily with meals, providing 180mg total daily intake. Our 84-capsule Alli pack (8-week supply) costs £54.99, or £49.49 with EDM10 discount. While less potent than prescription-strength orlistat, Alli may suit patients wanting to start with a lower dose under clinical guidance.
Order Safely From Our Registered Pharmacy
EverydayMeds' online clinical assessment ensures orlistat is prescribed safely and appropriately.

We offer 2-week, 4-week, 8-week, and 12-week supplies with next day delivery across the UK. Our 12-week orlistat supply (252 capsules) provides the best value at £95.99, reduced to £86.39 with EDM10. Every order includes your prescription and comes from our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy.
