Why Choose Private Prescription for Weight Loss?
Is Alli Weight Loss Treatment Effective?
Alli 60mg contains orlistat, which works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your gut. Following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers, Alli may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. The private prescription route offers faster access compared to NHS waiting times, with online consultations replacing traditional GP appointments.
Private vs NHS Prescription Route
While Alli and prescription-strength orlistat are available through the NHS, accessing treatment often involves lengthy waiting times and multiple GP appointments. Our private prescription service provides immediate access following successful online clinical assessment. Starting at £28.99 for a 4-week supply (£26.09 with EDM10), you can begin your weight management journey without delays. Our UK-licensed prescribers review your health information the same day, with approved prescriptions dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
Orlistat Treatment Options Available
Beyond Alli 60mg, we also supply prescription-strength orlistat 120mg (£32.99 for 84 capsules, £29.69 with EDM10) and branded Xenical 120mg (£42.99 for 84 capsules, £38.69 with EDM10). All contain the same active ingredient but at different strengths. Prescription-strength options may be more suitable for some patients, subject to clinical assessment. Our prescribers will determine which treatment strength is most appropriate based on your individual health circumstances and weight management goals.
How the Private Prescription Process Works
Complete our secure online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines treatment suitability. If approved, your prescription is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched via tracked, discreet delivery. Next day delivery is available across the UK, with all medication sourced through licensed pharmaceutical supply chains. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from consultation to delivery.
Treatment Effectiveness and Safety
Orlistat-based treatments like Alli work by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. Unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. Most patients experience gastrointestinal side effects initially, particularly when consuming high-fat meals. These effects typically reduce as your diet adapts to lower fat intake. Always follow guidance from your prescriber and maintain a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet for optimal results.
