How to Get Your Orlistat Prescription Online Today
Can You Buy Orlistat Over The Counter in the UK?
Prescription-strength orlistat 120mg cannot be purchased over the counter in the UK. This includes both generic orlistat and branded Xenical, which require a valid prescription from a qualified healthcare professional. However, our online prescription service makes accessing orlistat straightforward - complete an online consultation, receive prescriber review, and get your medication delivered to your door.
Online Prescription Process - Simple 3-Step System
Getting your orlistat prescription online is refreshingly simple. First, complete our comprehensive online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. Second, a UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines clinical suitability. Third, if approved, your medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched with next-day delivery. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from consultation to delivery.
Orlistat Pricing and Pack Sizes Available
We stock both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg in multiple pack sizes. Generic orlistat offers excellent value: 2-week supply (42 capsules) £16.89, 4-week supply (84 capsules) £32.99, 8-week supply (168 capsules) £63.99, and 12-week supply (252 capsules) £95.99.

Clinical Assessment and Prescriber Review
Every orlistat prescription requires individual clinical assessment by a UK-licensed healthcare professional. Our prescribers evaluate your BMI, medical history, current medications, and weight-related health factors to determine suitability. Orlistat may be prescribed for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. The assessment ensures safe, appropriate prescribing while maintaining the same clinical standards as traditional GP consultations.
How Orlistat Works - Fat Absorption Blocker
Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, reducing calorie intake when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Unlike appetite suppressants affecting the brain, orlistat acts locally in the gut and is not significantly absorbed into the bloodstream. Maximum effectiveness occurs when each meal contains no more than 15g fat, minimising gastrointestinal side effects.
Generic Orlistat vs Branded Xenical
Both products contain identical active ingredients at the same 120mg dose, providing clinically equivalent effects. The primary difference is cost - generic orlistat offers savings of approximately £9 monthly compared to Xenical. Some patients prefer branded Xenical for familiarity, while others choose generic orlistat for value. Your prescriber can advise which option suits your needs and budget during the online consultation.
