How to Use Xenical 120mg for Weight Management
How Xenical 120mg Works
Xenical contains orlistat 120mg, a lipase inhibitor that works locally in the digestive system. It blocks approximately one third of the fat from your meals, preventing it from being absorbed into the body. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your system, potentially reducing calorie intake from dietary fat. Xenical is designed to support weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Correct Dosing Instructions
Take one Xenical 120mg capsule three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Each capsule should be taken immediately before, during, or up to one hour after eating. If you miss a meal or eat a meal with no fat, you can skip that dose. Never take more than three capsules per day. Our 84-capsule pack provides a 4-week supply at £38.69 with code EDM10.
Diet Guidelines While Using Xenical
Keep your daily fat intake to approximately 30% of total calories, spread evenly across three main meals (roughly 15g fat per meal). High-fat meals significantly increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects. A daily multivitamin supplement is recommended, taken at bedtime at least 2 hours after your last Xenical dose, as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Choose Your Option
Both Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain identical active ingredients and offer the same clinical effect. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat provides equivalent weight management support from £29.69 for a 4-week supply, while branded Xenical costs £38.69. Some patients prefer the branded option, while others choose generic orlistat for better value. Complete your online consultation to discuss which option suits you best.
Managing Side Effects
Most Xenical side effects are gastrointestinal and directly related to dietary fat intake. Common effects include oily stools, increased bowel frequency, and oily spotting. These effects are signs the medicine is working and can be minimised by keeping meals low in fat. Most side effects reduce as your diet adapts. If side effects are severe or persistent, consult your healthcare professional.
