Order Prescription Orlistat Online - Clinical Assessment
Xenical 120mg vs Generic Orlistat - Same Effect, Different Price
Both Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect for less. Our 4-week supply costs £29.69 for generic orlistat or £38.69 for branded Xenical (with EDM10 discount), saving you around £9 monthly by choosing generic. Both work by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your gut to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption.
How Prescription Orlistat Supports Weight Management
Orlistat 120mg works locally in your digestive system, not your brain. It blocks lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat, preventing approximately one third of fat from being absorbed. Unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. This may help reduce calorie intake from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Individual responses vary - orlistat is designed to support weight management, not replace healthy lifestyle changes.
Who May Be Suitable for Prescription Orlistat
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or BMI 28 kg/m² or above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. A UK-licensed prescriber will assess your suitability through our online consultation, reviewing your medical history and current circumstances. Not everyone will be eligible - treatment depends on individual health assessment and clinical judgement.

Managing Side Effects with Lower-Fat Meals
Most orlistat side effects are gastrointestinal and directly linked to dietary fat intake. Common effects include oily stools, increased bowel movements, and abdominal discomfort. These can be significantly reduced by keeping fat intake low - approximately 15g fat per meal. Side effects are actually a sign the medication is working by preventing fat absorption. We also stock Alli 60mg (lower-strength option) for £26.09 per 4-week supply if you prefer starting with a gentler dose.
