Private Prescription Process - Order Today
Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat?
The private prescription route offers faster access to orlistat without NHS waiting lists or lengthy GP appointments. Following an online clinical assessment, UK-licensed prescribers can issue private prescriptions where clinically appropriate. Our GPhC-registered pharmacy dispenses and delivers your medication with next day tracked delivery across the UK.
Orlistat Options and Pricing
Generic orlistat 120mg provides excellent value, starting from £16.89 for a 2-week supply (42 capsules). For those preferring the branded option, Xenical 120mg is available from £21.50 for 2 weeks. Both contain the same active ingredient and work identically - the key difference is cost. Use code EDM10 to save 10% on every order, bringing orlistat down to just £15.20 for 2 weeks or £29.69 for a monthly supply.
How the Private Prescription Process Works
Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and, if appropriate, issues a private prescription. Your medication is then dispensed by our Leicester-based pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from consultation to delivery.
Clinical Assessment Requirements
Orlistat 120mg requires a prescription following individual clinical assessment. The prescriber will evaluate your BMI, medical history and suitability for treatment. Generally, orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 and above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your prescriber will determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances.
Comparing Your Options
Generic orlistat 120mg offers identical clinical effects to branded Xenical at a lower cost - saving approximately £10 per month. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption and must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. For those wanting a lower-strength option, Alli 60mg capsules provide half the dose of prescription strength orlistat.
