Orlistat 60mg vs 120mg Prescription Options
Orlos orlistat 60mg represents half the strength of prescription orlistat 120mg, offering a lower-dose option for weight management support. Our prescription orlistat 120mg provides the full clinical dose, available as generic orlistat from £29.69 for a 4-week supply or branded Xenical 120mg from £38.69. Both prescription strengths work by inhibiting lipase enzymes to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, supporting weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
How Prescription Orlistat Supports Weight Loss
Prescription orlistat works locally in your digestive system, not affecting your brain or appetite directly. The medication inhibits lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat, preventing approximately one third of consumed fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially reducing calorie intake from dietary fat. The treatment must be used alongside a structured weight management programme including dietary changes and increased physical activity for optimal results.

Who May Be Suitable for Prescription Orlistat
Prescription orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30kg/m² or above, or BMI 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our prescribers assess individual suitability during the online consultation, considering your medical history, current medications, and weight management objectives. Treatment requires commitment to dietary changes and increased physical activity alongside the medication.
Managing Treatment Effectively
Prescription orlistat works best when dietary fat intake remains low, approximately 15g per meal spread across three daily meals. Higher fat meals increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects, which are the body's natural response to unabsorbed fat. Taking a multivitamin supplement at bedtime supports absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Regular monitoring with your healthcare provider ensures treatment effectiveness and safety throughout your weight management journey.
