Prescription Weight Loss Tablets - How They Work
Orlistat is a prescription weight loss medicine that works by blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume. As a lipase inhibitor, orlistat acts locally in your digestive system to prevent fat absorption, with unabsorbed fat passing naturally through your body. This clinically studied approach may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli - Which to Choose?
We offer three prescription weight loss options: generic orlistat 120mg from £15.20 (2-week supply with EDM10), branded Xenical 120mg from £19.35, and lower-strength Alli 60mg from £26.09. Orlistat and Xenical contain identical active ingredients at the same dose - the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect as Xenical at a lower price, whilst Alli provides a gentler starting point at half the prescription dose.
Online Prescription Process - Fast & Discreet
Complete our online clinical assessment questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber will review your information and, if clinically appropriate, issue your prescription. Treatment is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and delivered discreetly next day. This regulated process provides the same standards as traditional pharmacies whilst offering convenient access without GP appointments.
Pack Sizes & Pricing - Best Value Options
Choose from multiple treatment durations: 2-week supplies (42 capsules) for £15.20, 4-week supplies (84 capsules) for £29.69, 8-week supplies (168 capsules) for £57.59, or 12-week supplies (252 capsules) for £86.39 - all prices include 10% discount with code EDM10. Longer treatment periods offer better value per capsule, supporting sustained weight management programmes recommended by healthcare professionals.
Safety & Suitability - Clinical Assessment Required
Prescription orlistat may be suitable for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Side effects are typically gastrointestinal and can be minimised by maintaining low-fat meals (approximately 15g fat per meal). Our prescribers assess individual suitability, considering medical history and current medications to ensure safe, appropriate treatment.
