Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat 120mg?
Private vs NHS Route for Orlistat 120mg
While orlistat 120mg is available on the NHS, many patients face lengthy waiting times and strict eligibility criteria through their GP surgery. Our private prescription service offers the same prescription-strength medication through a faster, more convenient route. Following an online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, you can access orlistat 120mg without NHS delays.
How Many Orlistat 120mg Capsules Per Day?
Take one 120mg capsule three times daily - one with each main meal containing fat. This means 21 capsules per week, making our 4-week supply (84 capsules) ideal for most patients. Take each capsule immediately before, during, or up to one hour after your meal. If you skip a meal or eat a fat-free meal, you can skip that dose.
Choose Generic Orlistat or Branded Xenical
Both contain identical 120mg orlistat and work exactly the same way. Generic orlistat offers excellent value at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10), while branded Xenical costs £38.69 for the same period. Your prescriber will recommend the most suitable option during your online consultation.
Private Prescription Process
