Orlistat Guidelines: How Prescription Weight Loss Works
Orlistat 120mg capsules represent a clinically proven approach to weight management in the UK. This prescription-only medicine works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially reducing your calorie intake from fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Prescription Strength Options Available
Our GPhC-registered pharmacy stocks both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg - both contain identical active ingredients and provide the same clinical effects. Generic orlistat offers excellent value from £29.69 per month (4-week supply with EDM10), while Xenical 120mg branded capsules are available from £38.69 monthly. Both require online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers. For those preferring a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg capsules provide half the dose at £26.09 per month.
Clinical Assessment and Suitability
Prescription orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our online consultation process involves completing a detailed health questionnaire reviewed by qualified UK healthcare professionals. Treatment is prescribed only where clinically appropriate following individual assessment of your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals.

All orders include prescription costs and discreet next-day delivery across the UK.
Treatment Guidelines and Expectations
Take one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. Orlistat works best when combined with a diet where no more than 30% of calories come from fat - approximately 15g fat per meal. This approach minimises gastrointestinal side effects while maximising the medicine's weight management support. Most patients notice treatment effects within the first few weeks, though individual responses vary significantly.
