Why Choose EverydayMeds for Orlistat Purchase?
Prescription Weight Loss Treatment - How Orlistat Works
Orlistat is a prescription-only weight loss medication that works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your digestive system. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, orlistat works locally in the gut by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down fat. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially supporting weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Orlistat Purchase Options and Pricing
We offer three clinically effective options for your weight management needs. Generic orlistat 120mg provides excellent value with 2-week supplies from £15.20 (was £16.89) with code EDM10. Our 12-week supply costs £86.39 (was £95.99), offering significant savings for longer-term treatment. Branded Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredient - orlistat 120mg - with 2-week supplies from £19.35 and 12-week courses for £116.09 with EDM10 discount. For those preferring a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg is available from £26.09 for 4 weeks.
Clinical Assessment and Prescription Process
Following completion of our online health questionnaire, a UK-licensed prescriber will review your medical history, current medications, and BMI to determine treatment suitability. Orlistat may be appropriate for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our prescribers ensure orlistat is clinically appropriate for your individual circumstances before issuing any prescription.
What to Expect During Treatment
Orlistat is taken as one 120mg capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can omit that dose. The medication works best when daily fat intake is distributed evenly across three meals, with no more than approximately 15g fat per meal. Most patients experience gastrointestinal side effects initially - these are signs the medication is working and typically reduce as your diet adapts to lower fat intake.
Comparing Your Options - Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli
Generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients and deliver the same clinical effect. The primary difference is cost - choosing generic orlistat can save approximately £30 over a 12-week course compared to Xenical. Alli 60mg offers half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat, making it suitable for those preferring a gentler introduction to treatment. All three options require commitment to dietary changes for optimal results.
