Why Choose Private Prescription Orlistat?
Faster Access Than NHS Route
Whilst orlistat is available on the NHS, private prescriptions eliminate waiting times and GP appointment delays. Our online clinical assessment provides the same thorough review by UK-licensed prescribers, often completed within hours rather than weeks. The private route is particularly beneficial for busy professionals who cannot easily attend daytime GP appointments or those in areas with limited NHS availability.
Generic vs Branded Options Available
We offer both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg through private prescription. Generic orlistat provides identical clinical effects at lower cost - 4 weeks costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) compared to Xenical at £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both contain the same 120mg orlistat dose and work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Your prescriber will discuss which option suits your preferences and budget during assessment.
Comprehensive Pack Sizes for Longer Treatment
Private prescriptions allow flexible pack sizing. Choose from 2-week starter packs (42 capsules) at £16.89, extending to 12-week supplies (252 capsules) at £95.99. Longer supplies offer better value - the 12-week generic orlistat pack costs just £86.39 with EDM10, equivalent to £28.80 monthly. This compares favourably to repeated NHS prescription charges whilst providing treatment continuity without frequent consultations.
Professional Clinical Assessment
Our private prescription process maintains the same clinical standards as NHS prescribing. UK-licensed prescribers review your medical history, current medications, BMI, and weight-related health factors. Orlistat 120mg may be suitable for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. The prescriber determines eligibility based on individual circumstances, ensuring safe and appropriate treatment.
Discreet Supply and Delivery
All orlistat orders are dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and delivered in discreet, unmarked packaging. Next-day delivery is available across the UK, with tracking provided for peace of mind. Your private prescription is included in the price - no separate fees for clinical assessment or prescriber review. Simply complete the online consultation, receive prescriber approval, and your medication is dispatched directly to your address.
