How Orlistat May Support Your Weight Management Goals
Understanding How Orlistat Works for Weight Management
Orlistat is a prescription-only medicine that 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, potentially reducing calorie intake from fatty foods when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Prescription Orlistat Options Available
EverydayMeds offers three clinically proven options following prescriber approval. Generic orlistat 120mg provides cost-effective treatment from £29.69 per month (4-week supply with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredient at £38.69 monthly. Alli 60mg offers lower-strength option at £49.49 for 8-week supply. All require clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers.
Who May Be Suitable for Prescription Weight Loss Treatment
Orlistat may be prescribed for adults with BMI 30 kg/m² or above, or BMI 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Suitability depends on individual health circumstances assessed during online consultation. Treatment must always complement reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular exercise programme.
