Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat?
Correct Orlistat Dosing: Three Times Daily, Not Four
The standard recommended dose for orlistat 120mg is one capsule taken three times daily with each main meal containing fat, not four times daily. Taking orlistat more frequently than prescribed won't increase its fat-blocking effectiveness and may increase the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. Each capsule should be taken immediately before, during, or up to one hour after a meal. If you miss a meal or eat a meal containing no fat, you can skip that dose.
Private Prescription: Faster Access Than NHS
Getting orlistat through private prescription at EverydayMeds bypasses NHS waiting lists and eligibility restrictions. Our UK-licensed prescribers can review your consultation within hours, providing much faster access to treatment than traditional GP appointments. You'll complete a comprehensive online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals.
Choose Generic Orlistat or Branded Xenical
Both contain the same 120mg active ingredient and work identically to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Generic orlistat offers excellent value at £32.99 for four weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical costs £42.99 for four weeks (£38.69 with EDM10). Our 12-week supplies provide the best value: orlistat £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) or Xenical £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10).
Professional Online Consultation Process
Our regulated online consultation replaces the need for a face-to-face GP appointment whilst maintaining the same clinical standards. You'll provide detailed information about your weight management history, any existing health conditions, current medications, and treatment goals. A qualified UK prescriber reviews every application individually to ensure orlistat is clinically appropriate for your circumstances.
