Xenical is to treat people who are overweight or obese. This medicine works by targeting the absorption of dietary fat in your body rather than suppressing your appetite.

Dietary fats are large molecules that need to be broken down before they can be absorbed into the body. They are broken down by enzymes called lipases. That is, lipases play an important role in the digestion of dietary fat. When taken with a meal, Xenical interferes with the activity of these enzymes. This allows about 30% of the fat eaten in the meal to pass through the gut undigested. Therefore, your body cannot store these excess calories as fatty tissue or use them as a source of energy. This helps you to reduce your weight by burning up fat that you are already carrying, maintain your lower weight and minimise any weight regain. Losing even small amounts of weight and keeping it off produces additional health benefits for you, especially when you are at risk for other diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. Xenical can also help to improve risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and high blood sugar. If these are not treated, they could lead to other diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. Xenical should be taken in conjunction with a well-balanced calorie-controlled diet and other appropriate measures such as exercise.Active Ingredients:Xenical does not contain sucrose, gluten, tartrazine or any other azo dyes.

Xenical (orlistat) is an innovative weight loss medication that aids individuals in managing obesity by inhibiting the absorption of dietary fats in the intestine. Obesity is a significant health concern that increases the risk of various conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. Xenical offers a unique approach to weight management by preventing the breakdown and absorption of about 30% of the fat consumed in a meal, which is then excreted from the body. This reduction in fat absorption helps lower overall caloric intake, making it easier for individuals to lose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle. When combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise, Xenical can significantly improve weight loss outcomes and reduce obesity-related health risks. It is a valuable tool for those struggling with weight management, providing support and efficacy in achieving long-term weight loss goals.

Benefits of Xenical:

• Supports weight loss by reducing fat absorption.
• Helps improve overall health and reduce obesity-related complications.
• Aids in maintaining a healthy weight when combined with a balanced diet and exercise.

Dosage:

• Typical dose: 120 mg three times daily with each main meal containing fat.

Warnings and Precautions:

• Use with caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal issues.
• Monitor for potential nutrient deficiencies, especially fat-soluble vitamins.
• Avoid use during pregnancy.

Usage Instructions:

• Take Xenical with each main meal containing fat.
• Follow a reduced-calorie diet to enhance weight loss results.

Storage Information:

• Store at room temperature, between 68°F and 77°F (20°C to 25°C).
• Keep in its original container, away from moisture and light.

Common Side Effects:

Treatment Options Metabolism Metabolism is a system organ that produces and dispose of acarbose, a compound classified as a lipase inhibitor. Metabolism occurs in the small intestine and the liver, and it is primarily regulated by a cyp3A-metAdvertisement-metabolizing enzyme system. Metabolism takes place through the liver and cyp3A-metabolizing enzymes, located in the pancreas, intestine, kidney, and small intestine. Metabolism is also inhibited by dietary fats, such as those found in soy products, high-fat foods, and trans fats. In humans, Metabolism does not occur through the kidneys but by activating enzymes in the pancreas. It occurs primarily in the small intestine and the liver, and it is primarily regulated by the cyp3A-metabolizing enzyme system.

Mechanism of Action of Xenical:

• Prevents absorption of about 30% of the fat consumed.
• A single dose in the intestines prevents the breakdown and absorption of about 30% of the fat.
• Helps reduce the amount of fat consumed by regulating hepatic and intestinal function.

Safe and Efficacy in Weight Loss:

• Prescribed as a lipase inhibitor for the treatment of obesity-related liver injury.
• Inhibits cyp3A-metAdvertisement-metabolizing enzyme system to reduce intestinal fat absorption.

Adverse Effects in Clinical Studies:

• Increased risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm.

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.

What’s the difference between Orlistat and Wegovy?

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:

• GlaxoSmithKline: Alli, 60 mg and available over the counter (no prescription)
• Roche: Xenical, 120 mg and available with a prescription

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.

How much do Wegovy and Orlistat cost?

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.

Should I try Orlistat or Wegovy for weight loss?

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.

Wegovy’s not a magic pill

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 a team-up as announced by its manufacturer, Second Nature Firstakes Wednesday, 28 June 2023

Frequently asked questions

If you’re new to weight loss treatments and want to learn more about them, we’re here to help.

How do weight loss tablets work?

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.

How do weight loss injections work?

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.

How effective are weight loss treatments?

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.
