Orlistat Weight Loss Treatment - How It Works
Orlistat is a prescription-only weight loss medication that works in your digestive system to block approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. Unlike appetite suppressants, orlistat acts locally in the gut by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down fat. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Choose Your Orlistat Treatment Option
EverydayMeds offers three orlistat options to suit different needs and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective prescription treatment from £15.20 for 2 weeks (£29.69 for 4 weeks with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg contains the same active ingredient at £19.35 for 2 weeks (£38.69 for 4 weeks with EDM10). For those preferring a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg is available at £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10. All treatments require assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers to ensure clinical suitability.
Am I Suitable for Prescription Orlistat?
Orlistat 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 with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol. Our online clinical assessment evaluates your medical history, current medications and weight management goals. A qualified UK prescriber reviews every application individually to determine if orlistat is appropriate for your circumstances. Complete your confidential consultation to discover if prescription weight loss support is right for you.
Managing Side Effects and Optimising Results
Most orlistat side effects are gastrointestinal and directly related to dietary fat intake. Common effects include oily or fatty stools, increased bowel movements and oily spotting. These effects can be significantly minimised by keeping fat intake to approximately 15g per meal and spreading daily fat intake evenly across three main meals. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime is recommended as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Side effects often reduce as your diet adapts to lower fat intake.
