Choose Your Orlistat Treatment - Prescription Included
Orlistat vs Xenical: Clinical Comparison
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. They work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption and are clinically equivalent. The main difference is cost - generic orlistat offers the same therapeutic effect as branded Xenical at a lower price point. Following online consultation with our UK prescribers, you can choose either option based on your preference and budget.

Clinical Assessment Requirements
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical are prescription-only medicines requiring clinical assessment. Our prescribers evaluate suitability based on BMI, medical history, and weight-related health factors. Treatment may be appropriate for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with associated conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. Individual assessment determines the most suitable option for your circumstances.
How Orlistat Supports Weight Management
Orlistat inhibits lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. Unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. This mechanism works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity. Both generic orlistat and branded Xenical provide identical therapeutic benefits when used as part of a structured weight management programme.
GPhC-Regulated Service Standards
EverydayMeds operates as a fully registered online pharmacy under GPhC oversight. Our prescribers hold current UK medical licences, and all medications are sourced through MHRA-regulated supply chains. Your treatment is dispensed in our Leicester facility and delivered discreetly with next-day tracking. This ensures the same safety standards as traditional pharmacy services with the convenience of online access.
