You can use this prescription at any pharmacy in the EU, including those in Sofia.

How it works: get your Xenical prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill out a brief online medical questionnaire (this takes 2–3 minutes) and pay the consultation fee of €25 every 28 days or €35 one-off.
  2. An EU-licensed doctor privately reviews your case. If the doctor determines Xenical treatment is not appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — there's no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (as a downloadable PDF file) directly in your Hi-Doctor account and via email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect your Xenical.

Who qualifies for Xenical

When you complete the online medical questionnaire, the doctor will assess several factors to determine if Xenical is appropriate. Generally, Xenical is prescribed for adults who are overweight (BMI ≥28 kg/m²) or obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m²) and have not achieved sufficient weight loss through diet and exercise alone. The doctor will look for your current weight, height, medical history, existing conditions, and any other medications you are taking. Certain contraindications, such as chronic malabsorption syndrome or cholestasis, would prevent a prescription.

What Xenical actually does (and doesn't do)

Xenical (orlistat) works by preventing your body from absorbing about one-third of the fat from the food you eat. It does this by blocking enzymes in your gut that break down dietary fat. This unabsorbed fat is then passed out of your body in your stools. Xenical is not a magic pill; it is designed to be used alongside a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet and regular physical activity. Realistic weight loss with Xenical typically ranges from 5% to 10% of your body weight over 6 to 12 months, provided you adhere to dietary changes. It's crucial to understand that Xenical only works on dietary fat and does not affect the absorption of carbohydrates or protein.

Side effects and when to stop

Common side effects of Xenical are usually related to its fat-blocking action and can include oily spotting, gas with discharge, urgent bowel movements, and fatty or oily stools. These effects are often more noticeable if you eat high-fat meals. Less common but more serious side effects can include liver problems, kidney stones, or pancreatitis. It's important to stop taking Xenical and consult a doctor if you experience severe abdominal pain, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. Always discuss any concerning side effects with your doctor.
