Why Choose Prescription Weight Loss Treatment?
Xenical and Orlistat - Prescription Weight Loss Options
Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical doses, designed to support weight management in adults with obesity or those who are overweight with weight-related health conditions. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when taken with meals, allowing unabsorbed fat to pass naturally through your system. The key difference lies in cost - generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect at lower prices, whilst some patients prefer branded Xenical.
How Prescription Weight Loss Medication Works
Orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. This prevents approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed into your body. The medication must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity for optimal effectiveness. Effects vary between individuals, and long-term weight management depends on continued dietary and lifestyle changes.

Clinical Assessment and Prescription Process
Purchasing Xenical online requires completion of a detailed health questionnaire reviewed by our UK-licensed prescribers. Treatment may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30kg/m² or above, or 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your prescriber will assess whether prescription weight loss medication is appropriate for your individual circumstances. Following approval, medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
Managing Your Treatment Effectively
Take one 120mg capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) significantly reduces the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects whilst maintaining treatment effectiveness. A daily multivitamin supplement is recommended, taken at bedtime to ensure proper absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Most patients experience improved tolerance after the first few weeks as their diet adapts.
