Prescription Weight Loss Treatment Options
EverydayMeds offers clinically-studied prescription weight loss tablets following individual assessment by UK-licensed prescribers. Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, supporting weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy provides three treatment options with significant savings using code EDM10.
Orlistat 120mg - Generic Prescription Option
Generic Orlistat 120mg capsules offer the most cost-effective prescription weight loss treatment. Starting from £16.89 for 2 weeks (42 capsules), reduced to £15.20 with EDM10. Longer courses provide better value: 12-week supply (252 capsules) costs £95.99, just £86.39 with discount code. Each capsule contains 120mg orlistat, taken three times daily with main meals containing fat. Clinical assessment determines suitability for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions.
Xenical 120mg - Branded Alternative
Xenical contains identical 120mg orlistat as generic versions but manufactured by Roche. Some patients prefer the branded option despite higher cost. 2-week starter pack costs £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10), whilst 12-week supply costs £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). Clinical effectiveness remains identical between generic orlistat and branded Xenical - the primary difference is price point and patient preference.
Alli 60mg - Lower Strength Option
Alli provides half-strength orlistat at 60mg per capsule for those preferring lower-dose treatment. Available without prescription requirement, Alli may produce milder gastrointestinal effects whilst still supporting weight management. 4-week supply (42 capsules) costs £28.99, reduced to £26.09 with EDM10. Extended 12-week courses cost £129.99 (£116.99 with discount code). Taken three times daily with fat-containing meals.

Treatment Safety and Effectiveness
Orlistat may help reduce dietary fat absorption when combined with structured lifestyle changes. Most common side effects are gastrointestinal and directly related to meal fat content - keeping fat intake around 15g per meal minimises unwanted effects. Clinical assessment identifies patients who may benefit most from treatment whilst ensuring safety. Regular review supports long-term weight management success alongside continued dietary and activity modifications.
