Why Orlistat May Not Be Working as Expected
If you're taking orlistat and not losing weight, several factors could be affecting your results. Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, but it must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet to be effective. Our UK-licensed prescribers can review your treatment plan and help identify potential issues.
Common Reasons for Limited Weight Loss Results
Weight loss with orlistat varies between individuals and depends on several factors. If meals contain too much fat (more than 15g per meal), this can reduce effectiveness and increase side effects. The medication works best when combined with a structured diet plan that spreads fat intake evenly across three main meals. Our clinical team can assess whether your current approach is optimised for your individual circumstances.
Treatment Options Available at EverydayMeds
We offer three orlistat options: generic Orlistat 120mg from £16.89, branded Xenical 120mg from £21.50, and lower-strength Alli 60mg from £28.99. All contain the same active ingredient that inhibits lipase enzymes in the gut. Following an online clinical assessment, our prescribers can determine whether adjusting your dose, switching between formulations, or modifying your dietary approach may help improve results.

Professional Clinical Assessment Process
Our GPhC-registered pharmacy provides comprehensive review through qualified UK-licensed prescribers. Complete an online health questionnaire detailing your current treatment experience, dietary habits, and weight management goals. Your prescriber will review this information and determine the most appropriate next steps, which may include continuing current treatment with dietary adjustments, changing orlistat strength, or exploring alternative approaches.
Optimising Your Orlistat Treatment Plan
Effective weight management with orlistat requires keeping daily fat intake to approximately 30% of total calories, spread evenly across meals. Each meal should contain no more than 15g of fat to minimise side effects and maximise effectiveness. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime is recommended, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
