Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat?
Private vs NHS Orlistat Prescription Routes
Whilst orlistat is available through the NHS, many patients experience lengthy waiting times and strict eligibility criteria. Our private prescription service offers a faster alternative route to accessing prescription-strength orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical without the delays typically associated with NHS prescribing. Following an online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, eligible patients can receive their medication within days rather than weeks or months.
Online Clinical Assessment Process
Our streamlined private prescription service eliminates the need for multiple GP appointments. Complete a comprehensive medical questionnaire covering your health history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines treatment suitability. If appropriate, your prescription is issued and dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester, with discreet next-day delivery across the UK.
Orlistat Treatment Options Available
We stock three orlistat formulations to suit different needs and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg capsules start from £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), offering excellent value whilst maintaining clinical equivalence to branded alternatives. Xenical 120mg, manufactured by Roche, costs £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10) for patients preferring the original branded version. Alli 60mg provides a lower-strength option at £28.99 for 4 weeks (£26.09 with EDM10).
How Orlistat Works Alongside Diet
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your digestive system. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, reducing calorie intake from fatty foods. This prescription-only medication must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity. Most patients find keeping meals to approximately 15g fat helps minimise gastrointestinal side effects whilst maximising the medication's weight management support.
Private Prescription Pricing and Savings
Our private prescription service includes all consultation and prescribing fees in the medication price. Use code EDM10 for 10% off every order - available to both new and returning customers. For longer-term treatment, our 12-week supplies offer better value: generic orlistat costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10), whilst Xenical 12-week supplies cost £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). All prices include the private prescription, clinical assessment, and next-day delivery.
