Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat?
Private vs NHS Route - Faster Access to Treatment
While orlistat is available on the NHS, many patients experience lengthy waiting times and strict eligibility criteria. Our private prescription service offers the same clinical standards with significantly faster access. Following an online consultation with our UK-licensed prescribers, you can receive your prescription within 24 hours rather than waiting weeks for a GP appointment. This is particularly beneficial if you need to start weight management treatment quickly or if your local NHS service has limited availability.
Three Treatment Options Available
We offer three orlistat products to suit different preferences and budgets. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective option at £29.69 for a 4-week supply with code EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg contains the identical active ingredient but costs £38.69 for the same period - some patients prefer the branded option. Alli 60mg offers a lower-strength alternative at £26.09 for a 4-week supply. All three work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Streamlined Online Prescription Process
Our online consultation replaces the need for a face-to-face appointment whilst maintaining the same regulatory standards. Complete a detailed health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A qualified UK prescriber reviews your information and determines whether orlistat is clinically appropriate for your circumstances. If approved, your prescription is issued electronically and your medication dispatched the same day from our Leicester pharmacy.
Transparent Pricing with Ongoing Savings
Private prescription costs are transparent with no hidden fees. Our pricing includes the prescriber consultation, prescription fee, medication cost, and delivery. Use code EDM10 for 10% off every order - this applies to both new and returning customers. For example, a 12-week supply of generic orlistat costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10), representing excellent value compared to individual monthly purchases. Longer treatment courses offer better value per capsule.
Professional Support Throughout Treatment
Choose private prescription for personalised support throughout your weight management journey. Our prescribers provide detailed guidance on dosing, dietary advice, and managing potential side effects. You receive comprehensive patient information with every order, plus access to our pharmacy team for any questions. This level of support helps maximise treatment effectiveness whilst minimising common issues like gastrointestinal side effects through proper dietary guidance.
Same Day Dispatch and Discreet Delivery
Orders approved before 2pm are dispatched the same day for next day delivery across the UK. All medication arrives in discreet, unmarked packaging with tracked delivery for complete peace of mind. Our Leicester-based pharmacy maintains full stock levels of all orlistat products, ensuring consistent availability without the supply issues sometimes experienced through NHS prescriptions.
