How to Get Your Orlistat Prescription Online
Understanding Orlistat Generic Names and Options
Orlistat is the active ingredient and generic name for prescription weight loss medication available at 120mg strength. You can choose between generic orlistat 120mg capsules or the branded version Xenical 120mg - both contain identical active ingredients and provide the same clinical effect. Generic orlistat offers significant savings, with a 4-week supply (84 capsules) costing £32.99 compared to £42.99 for branded Xenical. Both require a prescription following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
Your Online Prescription Process
Getting your orlistat prescription online is straightforward and completely regulated. Complete our confidential health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched with next day delivery. The entire process typically takes 24 hours, with prescription costs included in your order total.

Clinical Assessment and Suitability
Orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30kg/m² or above, or 28kg/m² with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Our prescribers assess each application individually, considering your medical history, current medications, and treatment goals. The medication works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption and must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Treatment suitability depends on individual health circumstances and prescriber approval.
How Orlistat Works
Orlistat works in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When these enzymes are blocked, approximately one third of the fat you eat cannot be absorbed and passes naturally through your body. The medication acts locally in the gut rather than affecting your brain or central nervous system. For best results and to minimise side effects, limit fat intake to approximately 15g per meal and spread this evenly across three main meals daily.
Delivery and Pharmacy Credentials
All orders are processed by our GPhC-registered online pharmacy based in Leicester. We source medication through licensed UK pharmaceutical supply chains and comply with all MHRA regulations. Your orlistat is packaged discreetly and delivered with Royal Mail next day delivery across the UK. Track your order online and receive it in unmarked packaging for complete privacy. As a regulated UK pharmacy, we maintain the same standards as your local high street chemist.
