Choose Your Orlistat Weight Loss Treatment
How Alli Orlistat Supports Weight Loss
Alli orlistat weight loss treatment works by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed in your digestive system. As a lipase inhibitor, orlistat acts locally in the gut rather than affecting your brain or appetite. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help reduce calorie intake from dietary sources when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Orlistat Treatment Options Available
We offer three orlistat options to suit different needs and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective prescription treatment, starting from just £15.20 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules) with code EDM10. Xenical 120mg offers the branded version with identical clinical effects for £19.35 per 2-week supply. For those preferring a lower-strength option, alli 60mg contains half the dose at £26.09 for a 4-week supply. All prices include 10% off with code EDM10.
Clinical Assessment and Prescription Process
Orlistat 120mg requires a prescription following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers. Our online consultation covers your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals to determine treatment suitability. Orlistat may be appropriate for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 or above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Complete your assessment today to discover if prescription weight loss treatment is right for you.
Treatment Effectiveness and Expectations
Orlistat is designed to support weight reduction when combined with lifestyle changes, not replace them. The medication works best when fat intake is kept low - approximately 15g per meal - which also helps minimise gastrointestinal side effects. Most patients find that maintaining a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet alongside regular physical activity maximises the potential benefits of orlistat treatment. Individual responses vary, and long-term success depends on sustained dietary and lifestyle modifications.
Managing Side Effects
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects, predominantly gastrointestinal effects related to unabsorbed fat. Common side effects include oily stools, increased bowel movements, and urgent bowel needs, particularly after high-fat meals. These effects can be significantly reduced by keeping daily fat intake low and spread across three main meals. Most side effects diminish as you adapt to a lower-fat diet.
