Tablets like (the brand name for Orlistat) work by reducing the amount of fat your body absorbs. Ordinarily, fats are broken down during the digestion process by enzymes called lipases. Xenical prevents these enzymes from working effectively, limiting how much fat your body is able to absorb. The remaining, undigested fat is then excreted.
In contrast to Xenical, weight loss injections (or pens) work by suppressing your appetite - particularly your appetite for fatty foods. Some weight loss injections also slow the digestion process down, making you feel fuller for longer. They’re simple to use - check out our for more information.
Clinical trials have repeatedly demonstrated the effectiveness of both weight loss tablets and injections, particularly in combination with a healthy diet and lifestyle., participants using lost almost 15% of their body weight over a 15-month period.

You can buy Orlistat (Xenical/Alli) as an over-the-counter alternative to Wegovy in the UK.
However, Orlistat is a very different type of weight-loss medication, and research suggests it’s not as effective as Wegovy in supporting weight loss.
Wegovy and Orlistat are weight-loss medications approved for use in the UK. However, they are different medications with distinct dosing schedules, costs, and mechanisms of action on the body.
Orlistat is a lipase inhibitor. Lipases are gut enzymes that break down fat from food, enabling the gut to transport fat into the body to be burnt for energy or stored in our fat cells for later use.
Orlistat blocks lipases, preventing some of the dietary fat from our meals from being digested. This leads to fewer calories being absorbed, which can support weight loss.
Orlistat is a prescription medication produced by two pharmaceutical companies in the UK:
Wegovy is a weight-loss jab manufactured by Novo Nordisk. It’s a weekly weight-loss injection with semaglutide as the active ingredient.
Semaglutide is a that helps reduce hunger and appetite, allowing you to eat fewer calories, lose weight, and manage your blood sugar levels.
Wegovy is approved in the UK for individuals living with obesity to help them eat fewer calories and lose weight.
The over-the-counter version of Orlistat will cost around £18 a month, so it’s a very affordable medication.
In comparison, buying Wegovy and the injectable pens required for four weeks from Second Nature will cost £229 a month, rising to £299.
Orlistat is an affordable medication that is generally well-tolerated. However, it’s less effective than Wegovy. Wegovy is twice as effective as Orlistat for weight loss after one year.
So, if you’re looking for the most affordable weight-loss pill you can purchase over the counter, then Orlistat could be an option.
However, if you have a higher budget and are looking for the most effective weight-loss injection in the UK, semaglutide is a better choice.
Semaglutide is designed as an additional tool for weight management and, in most cases, shouldn’t be considered a lifelong medication.
Instead, it should be used to help you kickstart your weight loss and healthy journey while you commit to living a healthier lifestyle.
Ideally, we’d be able to lose weight without medication and lifestyle changes would be enough to support weight loss in the long term.
We’d generally recommend trying Second Nature’s before considering a weight-loss jab.
Changing your habits is the most sustainable way to achieve long-term weight loss, and it’s also less expensive.
At Second Nature, we’ve been trusted by the NHS since 2017 to support people with type 2 diabetes and obesity to lose weight, manage their blood sugar levels, and lead healthier lifestyles for the long term.
In 2022, the NHS in the BMJ that compared the weight loss outcomes of five providers in the National Diabetes Prevention Programme.
Second Nature was more than twice as effective at supporting weight loss than the other four providers.
However, if you’ve decided to try semaglutide (when it’s available) but need support in making positive changes to your lifestyle, Second Nature could be an option for you. But it’s worth noting that we have strict eligibility criteria.
Second Nature has been clinically helpfully called “not a magic pill”We have open communication with third-party providers to ensure there are no risks to your privacy.

Xenical 120 mg (Orlistat) is an oral prescription medicine used to help people lose weight and maintain weight loss. Xenical is the generic name of the drug. All strengths are available in various forms. For best results, Xenical is usually taken three times a day, with a meal or snack every three to six hours. The recommended dosage is one 120 mg capsule or one 120 mg tablet every three to six hours, but this may be increased to 120 mg or reduced to one tablet every six hours.
Xenical works by blocking the absorption of fat in the digestive system. It is known as an active ingredient in all strengths of the drug. However, there are some differences between the different formulations of the drug. Xenical comes in a tablet form (Xenical 120) and a liquid form (Xenical 120 mg). It's important to note that the effects of these forms are the same, and that a lower dose may be used. Xenical should be taken at least two hours before or after meals. If you miss a meal or consume a meal with too little fat, you should take it immediately. It's also important to follow the dosing instructions for Xenical. For example, taking the lower dose (120 mg) three times a day with a meal should be taken four times a day. In some cases, people with an extra or more fat-containing meal may also take a higher dose (120 mg), but the effect is not as noticeable as with a lower dose.
Xenical 120 mg can be used to help people lose weight and maintain weight loss, but the benefits are not as great. Xenical is the active ingredient in all strengths of the drug. It works by blocking the action of a particular enzyme called P-glycoprotein, which is responsible for breaking down dietary fat. Xenical works by blocking the absorption of fat in the intestines, which promotes weight loss. It also helps reduce the amount of calories you consume each day, which in turn helps reduce the need for medication.
Xenical is used to help people lose weight and maintain weight loss. Xenical is a prescription-only medicine and is not approved for use in adults. It should only be taken by adults who are pregnant or nursing. This drug is not approved for use in children under five years old. Xenical is not approved for use in women, who are pregnant, nursing or that are in a relationship, or anyone who is trying to lose weight. It is not intended for use by pregnant women or newborns. It should not be used by children under the age of 8 years old. It is not approved for use by anyone under the age of 18 years old.
Xenical 120 mg is usually taken three times a day with a meal or snack, preferably one hour before or one hour after a meal. To help you feel fuller, take the capsule by mouth and swallow it whole.
