Why Choose Private Prescription Orlistat?
Private vs NHS Route for Orlistat
While orlistat is available on the NHS, accessing it through private prescription offers significant advantages. NHS orlistat requires GP appointments, eligibility assessments, and potential waiting times. Our private prescription service provides immediate access through online consultation with UK-licensed prescribers, bypassing traditional delays whilst maintaining the same regulatory standards.
Best Orlistat Options Available
We stock three orlistat options to suit different preferences and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg offers the most cost-effective option at £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10). Branded Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredients at £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10). Both prescription-strength options work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Alli 60mg provides a lower-strength alternative at £28.99 for 4 weeks (£26.09 with EDM10).
How Private Prescription Works
Our streamlined process eliminates traditional barriers to accessing orlistat. Complete our online health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched with next day delivery. The entire process can be completed from home without face-to-face appointments.
Clinical Assessment and Suitability
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or BMI 28 or above with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our prescribers assess individual circumstances during the online consultation. Treatment suitability depends on medical history, current medications, and specific health factors. All prescribing decisions are made by qualified healthcare professionals following MHRA guidelines.
Pricing and Value Comparison
Generic orlistat provides excellent value compared to branded alternatives. A 12-week supply costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) compared to Xenical at £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). Both contain identical 120mg orlistat doses and offer the same clinical effects. The prescription fee is included in our prices, eliminating additional consultation charges. Use code EDM10 for 10% off every order, available to both new and returning customers.
Fast, Discreet Delivery
All orders are processed by our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy. Standard delivery arrives within 1-2 working days, with next day delivery available for urgent orders. Medications are packaged discreetly without external pharmacy branding. Tracking information is provided for all shipments across the UK. Your privacy is protected throughout the entire process from consultation to delivery.
Ongoing Support and Monitoring
Private prescription doesn't mean going it alone. Our service includes access to pharmaceutical guidance and prescriber support throughout your treatment. Orlistat works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. We provide comprehensive patient information leaflets and dosing guidance with every order. For questions about side effects or treatment adjustments, our team is available to provide ongoing support.
