How Our Online Prescription Process Works
Complete Online Clinical Assessment
Our online prescription process starts with a comprehensive health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. This clinical assessment replaces the need for a face-to-face GP appointment whilst maintaining the same regulatory standards. UK-licensed prescribers use this information to determine whether orlistat 120mg is clinically appropriate for your individual circumstances.
UK Prescriber Reviews Your Information
Every consultation is reviewed by qualified UK healthcare professionals who assess your suitability for orlistat treatment. Our prescribers evaluate your BMI, medical history, and any contraindications before making prescribing decisions. This ensures you receive the same clinical oversight as a traditional pharmacy visit, but with the convenience of online access.
Choose Generic Orlistat or Branded Xenical
Both options contain identical 120mg orlistat - the difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers excellent value from £16.89 for 42 capsules (2 weeks), reduced to £15.20 with code EDM10. Branded Xenical costs £21.50 for the same quantity, reduced to £19.35 with our discount. Longer treatment courses provide better value: 12-week supplies start from £86.39 (orlistat) or £116.09 (Xenical) with EDM10.
Dispensed and Delivered Discreetly
Following prescriber approval, your medication is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched the same day. All orders include tracked next day delivery in discreet packaging. Your prescription is included in the price - there are no hidden fees or additional consultation charges.
How Orlistat 120mg Works
Orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat absorption by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, reducing calorie intake from fatty foods. The medication works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. Take one 120mg capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily.
Ongoing Support Throughout Treatment
Our online prescription service includes access to clinical guidance throughout your treatment period. Prescribers can adjust dosing, provide dietary advice, and monitor your progress through follow-up consultations. This comprehensive approach ensures you get maximum benefit from orlistat therapy whilst maintaining safety oversight.
