Overview

NOTE: After selecting this product, you will need to complete a short assessment, so we can make sure this medication is suitable for you. Pricing is provided as a reference only. The final decision on issuing this medication remains with our Prescriber / Pharmacist.

What are Xenical 120mg capsules?

Xenical 120mg is the branded version of the weight loss medicine Orlistat. This weight loss medicine works by reducing the body’s ability to absorb fat. Xenical 120mg capsules can be prescribed to patients with a BMI over 28.

As a fat-blocking medication, Xenical does not suppress your appetite but instead it prevents dietary fat from being broken down in the body. As a result, undigested fat is passed through the digestive system and exits your body as an oily discharge, typically as fatty or oily stools.

Before you take Xenical, it is important to note that you must maintain a low-calorie diet and exercise programme alongside taking Xenical tablets. This medicine is not intended as meal or exercise replacements.

You can buy Xenical online here at Pharmacy Online. Following a short consultation with our online doctor, if they deem you suitable, they'll prescribe you Xenical and it can be sent out the next working day.

FAQ

  • What food should I eat when taking Xenical?

    When you take Xenical, it is important to maintain a healthy, low-calorie, balanced diet. As Xenical is taken with food, to gain optimal benefit, avoid eating fat with your main meal. And to try to refrain from eating chocolate, biscuits, and snacks between meals.

    If you do not take Xenical alongside a balanced diet rich in nutritional food, it is unlikely to have an effect on your weight loss efforts, and can increase the likelihood of negative side effects.

    Bear in mind that Xenical 120mg capsules will prevent your body from absorbing fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K, therefore you're advised to take a multivitamin supplement daily too - at least 2 hours after taking Orlistat, or just before going to bed.

  • How do I take Xenical 120mg capsules to lose weight?

    Xenical is an oral tablet that should be taken three times daily, once with each main meal throughout the day.

    Xenical tablets should not be taken without food, preferably a meal, as the medication’s ability to help with losing weight relies on the presence of dietary fat in food. If the food you're eating doesn't contain fat, there's no need to take Xenical.

    If you forget to take a tablet, you can take one tablet up to one hour after eating.

  • How do Xenical 120mg capsules work?

    Xenical 120mg capsules work by preventing the fat in the food you eat (approximately 30%) from being digested and absorbed in your digestive system. The active ingredient, Orlistat attaches to the enzymes (gastric and pancreatic lipases) in your gut and prevents them from breaking the fat down. This undigested fat then passes through your body and is expelled when you go to the toilet.

    By preventing your body from absorbing unwanted dietary fat, as well as following a balanced diet and increased exercise plan, you can lose weight and lower your body weight more quickly than dieting alone.

  • How much weight loss should I expect when taking Xenical?

    The amount of weight you lose whilst taking Xenical varies depending on several factors, including the number of calories you consume, your exercise levels, your metabolism, your current state of health, your body mass index, and your starting weight.

  • Can I take other weight loss medications alongside Xenical?

    It is not advisable to take additional weight loss medications alongside Xenical. For the best results, you should follow a healthy diet and exercise plan to optimise the effects of Xenical tablets. 

  • Should I take Xenical with food?

    Yes, you should take Xenical capsules with a fat-containing meal, or up to one hour afterwards. If your meal contains no fat or is a small snack, there is no need to take an Xenical capsule.

     

  • Can I drink alcohol when taking Xenical?

    There are no adverse interactions found when drinking alcohol with Xenical, so it is safe to do so when taking this medication. However, if you're trying to lose weight, cutting down your alcohol intake will help.

  • Who shouldn't take Xenical 120mg capsules?

    Do not take Xenical weight loss tablets if you are:

    • Allergic to the active ingredient orlistat
    • Have chronic malabsorption syndrome
    • Have cholestasis
    • Are breastfeeding or are pregnant

Side Effects

There are possible risk factors and side effects with all medications, and weight loss treatments are no exception.

Before you take Xenical, it is important to understand the possible side effects that can occur. These commonly subside over time, however where side effects are more serious, they should be reported to your GP right away.

Please contact a member of our team if you are concerned about any potential side effects that may occur when taking Xenical.

Side effects of Xenical may include:

  • Stomach pains
  • Flatulence
  • Oily rectal discharge
  • Increased bowel movements
  • Vomiting
  • Severe diarrhoea
  • Liquid, oily, or fatty stools
  • Jaundice (liver disorder)
  • Headache

Before commencing treatment, be aware that when you take Xenical 120mg capsules, they can cause a harmless change in your toilet habits. This is because the medicine reduces the body's ability to absorb fat, and therefore when undigested fat is expelled, it can result in oily discharge or fatty stools.

Other associated risk factors include the possible failure of oral contraception in the case of severe diarrhoea. If this occurs, speak to your doctor about an additional contraceptive method.
