Who qualifies for Orlistat

When considering an Orlistat prescription online, the doctor looks for specific criteria. Orlistat is typically prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 28 or more who also have weight-related health conditions, or for those with a BMI of 30 or more without co-morbidities. It is crucial that you are committed to dietary changes and increased physical activity, as Orlistat works best as part of a comprehensive weight management plan.

Contraindications include chronic malabsorption syndrome, cholestasis, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. The doctor will review your full medical history, current medications, and any other health concerns during your online consultation to ensure Orlistat is safe and appropriate for you.

What Orlistat actually does (and doesn't do)

Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your gut. These enzymes are responsible for breaking down dietary fats so your body can absorb them. By blocking these enzymes, Orlistat prevents about 25–30% of the fat you consume from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat is then excreted from your body.

It's important to understand that Orlistat is not a 'magic pill'. It helps you lose weight by reducing fat absorption, but it does not burn existing fat or suppress your appetite. For best results, Orlistat must be combined with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. You can expect a modest weight loss of 5–10% of your body weight over 6 to 12 months when used consistently with lifestyle changes.

Side effects and when to stop

As Orlistat works by preventing fat absorption, its most common side effects are gastrointestinal. These can include oily spotting, gas with discharge, urgent bowel movements, fatty or oily stools, and an increased number of bowel movements. These side effects are often a sign that you have consumed too much fat in your diet and typically decrease as you adjust to a lower-fat eating plan.

In rare cases, more serious side effects can occur, such as liver problems. You should stop taking Orlistat and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark urine, or itching. Always discuss any persistent or concerning side effects with your doctor via the private chat in your Hi-Doctor account.
