Fast Private Orlistat Prescription - Order Today
Taking Orlistat Before Food: Clinical Guidance
Orlistat should be taken immediately before, during, or up to one hour after each main meal containing fat. Taking orlistat before food is clinically appropriate and may be preferred by some patients. The key is consistency - whether you take it before, during or after meals, maintain the same timing pattern throughout treatment. Our private prescription service provides fast access to orlistat 120mg from £15.20 (2 weeks) without NHS delays.
Private Prescription Benefits vs NHS Route
Skip lengthy NHS waiting lists with our private prescription service. While orlistat is available through the NHS, many patients face delays and strict eligibility criteria. Our UK-licensed prescribers offer same-day prescription approval where clinically appropriate, with orlistat 120mg available from £29.69 for 4 weeks (£32.99 minus 10% with EDM10). Xenical 120mg available from £38.69 for 4 weeks. Complete our online assessment today for faster access.
Optimal Timing for Maximum Effect
Whether taken before, during or after meals, orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Taking orlistat before food ensures the medication is present when fat digestion begins. This timing may help some patients remember their doses more consistently. Each 120mg capsule should be taken with main meals containing fat - skip the dose if your meal contains no fat or you miss the meal entirely.
Product Options Through Private Prescription
Choose from three clinically proven options: Generic orlistat 120mg (most cost-effective from £15.20 for 2 weeks), branded Xenical 120mg (from £19.35 for 2 weeks), or lower-strength Alli 60mg (from £26.09 for 4 weeks). All prices include 10% discount with code EDM10. Our prescribers will recommend the most suitable option following your online clinical assessment. Same active ingredient, different price points to suit your budget.
Fast Online Assessment Process
Complete our comprehensive online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications and weight management goals. UK-licensed prescribers review your information the same day, issuing prescriptions where clinically appropriate. No face-to-face GP appointment required. Once approved, our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy dispenses and dispatches your medication for next-day delivery across the UK.
Supporting Your Weight Management Journey
Orlistat works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet with no more than 30% calories from fat. Spread fat intake evenly across three main meals (approximately 15g fat per meal) to minimise gastrointestinal side effects. Our prescribers provide dietary guidance and ongoing support throughout your treatment. Take a daily multivitamin at bedtime (2 hours after your last orlistat dose) to replace fat-soluble vitamins.
