Why Choose Prescription Orlistat for Weight Management?
Orlistat is a prescription-only weight loss medication that works by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, orlistat works locally in your digestive system, inhibiting lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help reduce calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli - Which Should You Choose?
EverydayMeds stocks three orlistat options to suit different needs and budgets. Generic Orlistat 120mg offers excellent value at £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), containing the same active ingredient as branded alternatives. Xenical 120mg, manufactured by Roche, provides the identical clinical effect at £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10) - some patients prefer the branded option. Alli 60mg at £28.99 for 4 weeks (£26.09 with EDM10) offers half the prescription strength for those preferring a gentler starting approach.
All three products require the same commitment to dietary changes and work best when fat intake per meal is kept low to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. Your prescriber will help determine which option is most suitable following your clinical assessment.
Simple Online Prescription Process
Getting your orlistat prescription couldn't be easier. Complete our confidential online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and, if clinically appropriate, issues your prescription. We then dispense and dispatch your medication from our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy with discreet next day delivery available across the UK.
This private prescription service saves time compared to NHS routes whilst maintaining the same clinical standards. Your prescription is included in the price - no separate consultation fees or GP appointment waiting times required.
Maximising Your Weight Loss Results
Orlistat is designed to support weight management as part of a comprehensive approach. For best results, spread your daily fat intake evenly across three main meals, keeping each meal to approximately 15g fat or less. This reduced-fat approach not only supports the medication's effectiveness but significantly reduces the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects such as oily stools or urgent bowel movements.
We recommend taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime (at least 2 hours after your last orlistat dose) as the medication may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Regular physical activity and ongoing dietary support further enhance your weight management programme.
