Orlistat and Nausea: What You Need to Know
Many patients ask "does orlistat make you feel sick?" The good news is that nausea is uncommon with orlistat compared to other weight loss medications. Orlistat works locally in your gut to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption - it doesn't act on your brain or central nervous system like appetite suppressants that commonly cause nausea.
When nausea does occur with orlistat, it's usually mild and linked to eating high-fat meals. The unabsorbed fat passing through your digestive system may cause some stomach discomfort, but this typically reduces as you adapt to a lower-fat diet. Most orlistat side effects are gastrointestinal - oily stools, urgent bowel movements, and flatulence - rather than general sickness.

Minimising Side Effects Including Nausea
To reduce any stomach upset with orlistat, keep each meal to approximately 15g fat or less. This significantly reduces gastrointestinal side effects and any associated nausea. Take orlistat immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal containing fat. If you miss a meal or eat a fat-free meal, skip that dose.
Consider starting with our 2-week supply (£15.20 with EDM10) to assess your tolerance before ordering larger quantities. Most patients find side effects, including any mild nausea, reduce within the first few weeks as they adapt to the lower-fat diet that works best with orlistat.
