Orlistat 120mg - Prescription Weight Loss Treatment
Orlistat capsules 120mg are a prescription-only weight loss treatment that may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. This clinically studied medication works by blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume, helping reduce calorie intake as part of a structured weight management programme.
EverydayMeds offers both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg - both contain the same active ingredient at identical doses. Generic orlistat provides excellent value at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical costs £38.69 for 4 weeks. Clinical effects are equivalent regardless of which option you choose.
How Orlistat Capsules Work for Weight Loss
Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor that works locally in your digestive system. It blocks enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat, preventing approximately one third of consumed fat from being absorbed into your body. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your digestive system, helping reduce your overall calorie intake when combined with appropriate dietary changes.
This prescription weight loss treatment does not act on your brain like appetite suppressants. Instead, it works directly in your gut to support weight management alongside reduced-calorie eating and increased physical activity. Effects vary between individuals, and long-term success depends on maintaining healthy lifestyle changes.

Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and, where clinically appropriate, issues a prescription for orlistat capsules.

All prescriptions are dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and delivered discreetly to your address with next day delivery available.
Who May Be Suitable for Orlistat Treatment
Orlistat 120mg capsules may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or those with a BMI of 28 kg/m² or above who have weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Suitability is determined through individual clinical assessment by qualified healthcare professionals.
Treatment is not suitable for everyone. You must not use orlistat if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18 years old, or have certain medical conditions including chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis. Your prescriber will assess whether this prescription weight loss treatment is appropriate for your individual circumstances.
Supporting Your Weight Loss Journey
Orlistat capsules work best when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet containing no more than approximately 30% of calories from fat. This typically means around 15g of fat per meal, spread across three main meals daily. Higher fat intake significantly increases the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects.
Taking a daily multivitamin supplement is recommended, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Take your multivitamin at bedtime, at least 2 hours after your last orlistat dose, to ensure proper absorption while maintaining the medication's effectiveness.
