Why Choose Private Prescription for Generic Orlistat?
Private vs NHS Orlistat Prescription Routes
Whilst orlistat is available on the NHS, accessing it privately through EverydayMeds offers significant advantages. Our private prescription service eliminates NHS waiting lists and the need for multiple GP appointments. Following an online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, eligible patients can access generic orlistat 120mg within days rather than weeks or months.
Generic Orlistat 120mg Pricing
Generic orlistat provides the same clinical effect as branded Xenical at substantially lower costs. Our competitive pricing includes: 2 weeks (42 capsules) at £16.89, 4 weeks (84 capsules) at £32.99, 8 weeks (168 capsules) at £63.99, and 12 weeks (252 capsules) at £95.99. Apply code EDM10 for 10% off every order, reducing your 4-week supply to just £29.69.
How Generic Orlistat Works
Orlistat 120mg works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your gut. This prescription-only medication inhibits lipase enzymes, preventing fat digestion and allowing unabsorbed fat to pass naturally through your body. When combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet, orlistat may support weight management in adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28+ with weight-related health conditions.
Streamlined Online Prescription Process
Our regulated online prescription service replaces traditional GP consultations with a convenient digital assessment. Complete our medical questionnaire covering your health history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK prescriber reviews your information and, where clinically appropriate, issues a private prescription. Your generic orlistat is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and delivered discreetly to your address.
Comparing Your Orlistat Options
Choose between generic orlistat 120mg, branded Xenical 120mg, or lower-strength Alli 60mg. Generic orlistat and Xenical contain identical active ingredients at the same dose - the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers savings of approximately £10 per month compared to Xenical. Alli provides a lower-dose option for those preferring to start with half-strength treatment. All options require the same commitment to dietary changes and regular physical activity.
Who May Be Suitable for Private Orlistat Prescriptions
Private orlistat prescriptions may be suitable for adults aged 18 and over with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above. Those with a BMI of 28+ may also qualify if they have weight-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or elevated cholesterol. Suitability is determined through individual clinical assessment, with final prescribing decisions made by qualified healthcare professionals.
