“Been taking Orlistat 120mg capsules (supplied by The Independent Pharmacy) for about 4 months. Weight has slowly but steadily reduced & over that time I've lost about 9kg, I wasn't extremely overweight to start with & couldn't get any GLP-1 so managed to get these. Price is good, they work well, had a few "toilet" issues early on but if you watch your fat intake then you should be fine. They certainly work for me!”
“These appetite suppressants are not for me. Unfortunately they didn’t curb my appetite at all.
May we’ll work for others though.
Excellent service from the pharmacy.

Good morning,
Thank you for providing us with your feedback on this product.
We're very pleased to hear that you were happy with the service provided, and we understand it can feel frustrating when results aren’t as fast or dramatic as hoped, especially after working hard. It’s important to remember that weight gain often happens gradually over time, and in the same way, sustainable weight loss can take time too.
It may be useful to note that Orlistat is intended to help prevent up to 30% of dietary fat being absorbed by your body which can support weight loss when combined with a lower‑fat diet and regular exercise however this medication is not an appetite suppressant.
To offer you more personalised guidance, we’ve sent a message to the email address registered to your account. We look forward to helping you further.
