What are Xenical Capsules?

Xenical is the premium, branded version of the medication Orlistat. As a lipase inhibitor, it works directly in your digestive system rather than affecting your brain or heart rate. When you take a Xenical 120mg weight loss prescription in Hornchurch, the medication attaches to enzymes in your gut, preventing about 30% of the fat from your meals from being absorbed. Instead of being stored as body fat, this excess is passed naturally through your system.

Frequently Asked Question

What is the difference between Xenical and Orlistat?

Xenical is the brand name of the medication, while Orlistat is the active ingredient (the generic name). Both contain 120mg of Orlistat and work identically by blocking fat absorption. Some patients prefer the branded Xenical for its consistent manufacturing and trusted reputation, while others choose generic Orlistat for its lower cost.

How many Xenical capsules should I take daily?

The standard dose is one 120mg capsule taken with each of your three main meals per day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). You can take it immediately before, during, or up to one hour after your meal. If you skip a meal or eat a meal that contains no fat, you should omit that dose of Xenical.

Who is suitable for a Xenical prescription?

At our Hornchurch pharmacy, we follow strict clinical guidelines. Xenical is typically prescribed to adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or a BMI of 27 or above if you have other risk factors like Type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. It is not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Are there side effects with Xenical?

Because Xenical blocks fat absorption, the unabsorbed fat must leave your body through your stools. If you eat a meal very high in fat, you may experience “oily spotting,” urgent bowel movements, or flatulence. These effects are usually temporary and can be prevented by sticking to a low fat diet (less than 15g of fat per meal).

How long can I take Xenical for?

Your progress will be reviewed after the first 12 weeks. Clinical guidelines recommend that treatment should continue only if you have lost at least 5% of your initial body weight within those first three months. Our pharmacists will support you throughout this period to help you reach this goal.
