Professional Weight Loss Support with Side Effect Guidance
Understanding Constipation on Orlistat Treatment
Whilst orlistat commonly causes gastrointestinal side effects like oily stools and increased bowel frequency, constipation is less typical but can occasionally occur. This prescription weight loss medication works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, which may affect normal bowel patterns in some individuals. At EverydayMeds, our UK-licensed prescribers can provide guidance on managing any side effects whilst maintaining effective weight loss support.
Prescription Orlistat Options for Weight Management
We offer three clinically proven options for weight management support. Generic orlistat 120mg provides cost-effective treatment from £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg offers the same clinical effect at £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10). For those preferring lower-strength treatment, Alli 60mg starts at £28.99 for 4 weeks (£26.09 with EDM10). All treatments require clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers who can advise on optimising your weight loss journey whilst managing side effects.
Managing Side Effects During Treatment
If experiencing constipation whilst taking orlistat, maintaining adequate hydration and including appropriate fibre in your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet may help. Our prescribers can provide personalised guidance during your online consultation. Remember that orlistat works best when combined with meals containing no more than approximately 15g fat to minimise gastrointestinal effects. Treatment should always be used alongside increased physical activity and dietary changes for optimal weight management support.
