Why Choose Prescription Weight Loss Treatment?
How Prescription Orlistat Works for Weight Loss
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical work by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help reduce calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Both generic Orlistat and branded Xenical contain the same active ingredient at identical 120mg strength - the main difference is cost.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Which Should You Choose?
Generic Orlistat 120mg offers excellent value at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10), while branded Xenical costs £38.69 for the same period. Both products are clinically equivalent and require the same prescription process. Many patients choose generic Orlistat for cost savings - you could save over £100 annually compared to Xenical. All treatments require clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers to ensure suitability.

Managing Side Effects Effectively
Gastrointestinal side effects like oily stools or urgent bowel movements are common but can be minimised by keeping dietary fat low - approximately 15g fat per meal. These effects indicate the medication is working by preventing fat absorption. Most patients find side effects reduce over time as they adapt to a lower-fat diet. Always follow your prescriber's guidance and contact them if effects are severe or persistent.
