How Xenical Works - Ready to Order Today
What Does Xenical Do in Your Body?
Xenical contains orlistat 120mg, which works locally in your digestive system to block 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 unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, reducing calorie intake from dietary sources. Unlike appetite suppressants, Xenical doesn't work in your brain - it acts solely in your gut to support weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Both products are in stock and dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy following the same clinical assessment process. Some patients prefer branded Xenical while others choose generic orlistat for better value.

What to Expect When Taking Xenical
Xenical may help reduce dietary fat absorption when used alongside a structured weight management programme. Keep meals low in fat (approximately 15g fat per meal) to minimise gastrointestinal side effects like oily stools or urgent bowel movements. These effects indicate the medicine is working by preventing fat absorption. Most patients find side effects reduce over time as their diet adapts to lower fat intake.
