4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at **any pharmacy in the EU** to collect Orlistat.

Who qualifies for Orlistat

Orlistat (Xenical) is a prescription medication for weight management. Doctors look for specific criteria to ensure it's safe and effective for you. Typically, you qualify if you have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with co-existing weight-related conditions. These conditions might include high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. The doctor assesses your full medical history, current medications, and any potential contraindications during the online consultation to confirm Orlistat is the right treatment for your health profile.

What Orlistat actually does (and doesn't do)

Orlistat works by blocking approximately 30% of the dietary fat you consume from being absorbed in your gut. This unabsorbed fat then passes out of your body. This mechanism helps reduce your overall calorie intake and supports weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. It is not a quick fix; it enhances the effects of consistent lifestyle changes. You can expect gradual, steady weight loss, typically 5-10% of your body weight over 6-12 months. Orlistat does not suppress your appetite or act as a GLP-1 medication like semaglutide or tirzepatide.

Side effects and when to stop

As Orlistat works by inhibiting fat absorption, most side effects are gastrointestinal. These can include oily or fatty stools, increased bowel movements, gas with oily discharge, and abdominal discomfort. These effects are often a sign that you have consumed too much fat in your diet and can be managed by adhering to a low-fat eating plan. In rare cases, more serious side effects can occur, such as liver problems. Always discuss any persistent or severe side effects with your doctor. You should stop Orlistat and seek medical advice if you experience severe abdominal pain, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin or eyes.
