Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat 120mg?
Private vs NHS Route for Orlistat 120mg
While orlistat 120mg is available on the NHS, private prescription offers significant advantages. NHS access requires GP appointments, potential waiting times, and strict eligibility criteria. Our private prescription service eliminates these barriers, providing faster access through an online consultation with a UK-licensed prescriber. Following clinical assessment, your prescription can be issued the same day if treatment is deemed appropriate.
Orlistat 120mg Dosage and Private Prescription Pricing
Standard orlistat 120mg dosage is one capsule taken three times daily with each main meal containing fat. Our private prescription pricing includes consultation and prescription fees: 2 weeks (42 capsules) £15.20, 4 weeks (84 capsules) £29.69, 8 weeks (168 capsules) £57.59, and 12 weeks (252 capsules) £86.39 with code EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg is also available from £19.35 for 2 weeks with the same 10% discount.
Fast Access Without GP Appointments
Traditional NHS routes require booking GP appointments, which can involve waiting weeks. Our private prescription service works differently. Complete a comprehensive health questionnaire online, which is reviewed by a qualified UK prescriber. If orlistat 120mg is clinically appropriate based on your BMI and health circumstances, your prescription is issued electronically and dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
Clinical Assessment for Private Prescription
Every private prescription follows the same clinical standards as NHS prescribing. Our UK-licensed prescribers assess your suitability based on BMI (typically 30kg/m² or above, or 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions), medical history, current medications, and contraindications. The assessment ensures orlistat 120mg is safe and appropriate for your individual circumstances.
Generic Orlistat vs Branded Xenical - Private Prescription Options
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical contain identical active ingredients at the same dose, providing clinically equivalent effects. The key difference is cost - generic orlistat offers the same fat-blocking mechanism at approximately £9 less per month than Xenical. Some patients prefer branded Xenical while others choose generic orlistat for better value. Both require the same private prescription process and 120mg dosage regime.
Discreet Delivery Included with Private Prescription
All private prescriptions are dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and delivered in discreet, unmarked packaging. Next day delivery is available across the UK with tracking provided. Your medication arrives with clear dosage instructions and patient information leaflet, plus ongoing prescriber support if needed.
