How Xenical Works vs Appetite Suppressants
Xenical: Fat Blocker, Not Appetite Suppressant
Many people wonder "is Xenical an appetite suppressant?" The answer is no - Xenical (orlistat 120mg) works completely differently. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, Xenical works locally in your digestive system by blocking lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This prevents approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed, allowing it to pass naturally through your body.
Prescription Weight Loss Options at EverydayMeds
We offer three clinically proven fat blocking treatments. Generic orlistat 120mg provides excellent value from £16.89 for a 2-week supply (£15.20 with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg contains the identical active ingredient at the same dose, priced from £21.50 for 2 weeks (£19.35 with EDM10). For those preferring a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg is available from £28.99 for 4 weeks (£26.09 with EDM10).
Online Clinical Assessment Process
All 120mg orlistat products require prescription following clinical assessment. Our streamlined process involves completing an online health questionnaire reviewed by UK-licensed prescribers. If treatment is deemed appropriate for your circumstances, your prescription is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and delivered discreetly to your address with next day delivery available.
Supporting Your Weight Management Journey
Orlistat may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. The medication works best when fat intake is kept to approximately 15g per meal, which also helps minimise gastrointestinal side effects. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime is recommended as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
