Choose Your Orlistat 120mg Weight Loss Treatment
Orlistat 120mg Generic - Prescription Weight Loss UK
Orlistat 120mg capsules are a prescription-only weight loss treatment that may help support weight management in suitable adults. This clinically studied medication works by blocking the absorption of approximately one third of dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Available through our regulated online prescription service from £15.20 per 2-week supply with code EDM10.
How Orlistat 120mg Works for Weight Loss
Orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When these enzymes are blocked, approximately one third of the fat you eat cannot be digested or absorbed into your body. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, potentially reducing your calorie intake from dietary fat. The medication does not affect your brain or appetite - it works solely in your gut to reduce fat absorption.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Same Effect, Different Price
Generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. Both require a prescription and provide the same clinical effect. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings while delivering equivalent weight loss support. Choose orlistat 120mg from £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10) versus Xenical at £38.69 for 4 weeks. Both options are available through our online clinical assessment.

Important Safety Information
Like all prescription medicines, orlistat may cause side effects. Most side effects are gastrointestinal and directly related to dietary fat intake - they occur because unabsorbed fat passes through your system. Common side effects include oily stools, increased bowel frequency, and abdominal discomfort. These effects can be minimised by keeping your fat intake low (approximately 15g per meal). Always follow your prescriber's guidance and speak to a healthcare professional if you experience severe or persistent side effects.
