The Department of Health (DOH) is committed to ensuring that weight loss medications are available to patients at all costs and that they are safe and effective. The aim of the Obesity Medicine and Therapeutic Centre (OMTMC) is to provide access to weight loss medication without the need for a prescription.
Dr David Smith, Medical Director at DOH said: “We are proud to be a part of the Obesity Medicine and Therapeutic Centre (OMTMC), a national healthcare system that is designed to provide access to medicines and treatment for overweight and obese adults and children. We are proud of the strength of the obesity medicine and of the effectiveness of our medicines in treating our patients.”
Omeprazole is one of the most popular weight loss medications in the UK and the majority of it is available to patients over the counter (OTC). It contains the active ingredient Orlistat.
The drug is manufactured in a high-performance liquid formulation and can be used to control weight or provide a variety of weight loss goals. The weight loss can be achieved in the form of either daily oral or transdermal formulations, although the active ingredient is not part of the drug. Orlistat is available as a tablet or capsule and is typically taken every day at the same time of the day. The tablets or capsules are taken with a meal.
Orlistat has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke in many studies. It is also used to help control the weight of obese individuals.
The drug has been shown to improve symptoms of obesity and is a key part of the anti-obesity programme. It can help people lose weight and can help control the number of calories they eat from a calorie deficit.
The drug is only available in the UK by prescription, but it should be used under the supervision of a specialist pharmacist.
A number of other weight loss drugs have been approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for use in the UK. Other products include the anti-obesity medication Xenical, and the weight loss medication Saxenda.The weight loss medication Orlistat works by inhibiting the absorption of fat in the body. This prevents the body from absorbing it as well as reducing the absorption of calories. Orlistat is available as tablets or capsules.
The medication can be used to lose weight by any individual who is obese, or who has a BMI of 25 or more, or who is overweight or obese. It can be used to help people with obesity who are not able to lose weight and is therefore more likely to experience weight loss or gain.
The drug is not available in the UK as a prescription medication and should not be used by anyone who does not have a prescription for it.
The obesity medicine and medication is a very popular and very successful solution to the weight loss and weight maintenance that is available in the UK. It is also one of the more popular weight loss drugs in the UK.

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.
