How Orlistat Differs from Ozempic - Get Yours Today
Orlistat vs Ozempic: Key Differences
Orlistat and Ozempic work through completely different mechanisms. Orlistat is an oral lipase inhibitor that blocks approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, whilst Ozempic (semaglutide) is a weekly injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist that affects appetite regulation. Both require clinical assessment, but orlistat offers a non-injectable option for weight management support.
Private Prescription Benefits
Rather than waiting for NHS appointments, our private prescription service provides faster access to orlistat. Our UK-licensed prescribers can review your suitability online, eliminating GP surgery visits. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 for a 4-week supply (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both contain identical active ingredients at the same 120mg dose.
How Our Online Process Works
Complete our secure medical questionnaire detailing your health history and current medications. Our qualified prescribers review every application individually, assessing BMI requirements and suitability criteria. If approved, we dispense your orlistat from our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester with next-day tracked delivery. The prescription fee is included - no separate charges.
Orlistat Product Options
We stock three orlistat variants: generic orlistat 120mg (most cost-effective), Xenical 120mg (branded equivalent), and Alli 60mg (lower-strength option). Our 8-week supply of generic orlistat costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10), providing excellent value versus branded alternatives. All products work by blocking dietary fat absorption when taken with meals containing fat.
Clinical Assessment Requirements
Orlistat 120mg requires prescription following clinical assessment. Suitable candidates typically have BMI ≥30 kg/m² or BMI ≥28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Unlike Ozempic injections, orlistat is taken orally three times daily with main meals. Our prescribers ensure you meet eligibility criteria before approving treatment.
