Understanding Orlistat Side Effects: Does It Make You Sweat?
Sweating is not commonly reported as a direct side effect of orlistat. The medication works locally in your digestive system to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, rather than affecting your body's temperature regulation. Most orlistat side effects are gastrointestinal, including oily stools, increased bowel movements, and abdominal discomfort. If you experience unusual sweating while taking orlistat, consult your prescriber as this may be unrelated to the medication.
2-Week Supply: Perfect for First-Time Users
Starting with a 2-week supply allows you to assess how your body responds to orlistat. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £16.89 (£15.20 with EDM10) for 42 capsules, whilst branded Xenical costs £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This shorter supply is ideal if you're new to weight management medication or want to evaluate side effects before committing to longer treatment.
4-Week Supply: Standard Monthly Treatment
Our 4-week supplies provide one month's treatment. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) for 84 capsules, Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10), and Alli 60mg costs £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10) for 42 capsules. This option suits patients who prefer monthly ordering or are monitoring their response to treatment.
8-Week Supply: Better Value Option
Choose 8-week supplies for improved value whilst maintaining flexibility. Generic orlistat 168 capsules cost £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10), Xenical costs £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10), and Alli 84 capsules cost £54.99 (£49.49 with EDM10). This pack size offers savings compared to purchasing two 4-week supplies separately.
12-Week Supply: Maximum Savings
Our 12-week supplies provide the best value for established users. Generic orlistat 252 capsules cost £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10), saving £9.60 with our discount code. Xenical 12-week supply costs £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10), whilst Alli costs £129.99 (£116.99 with EDM10). These larger packs suit patients committed to longer-term weight management.
Which Pack Size Should You Choose?
Consider your treatment goals, budget, and experience with orlistat. New users may prefer starting with 2-4 week supplies to assess tolerance. Established users often choose 8-12 week supplies for better value. All pack sizes require online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers and include next-day delivery from our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
