Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat?
Private vs NHS Route for Orlistat
While orlistat is available on the NHS, accessing it privately offers significant advantages. NHS prescribing often involves lengthy waiting times, strict eligibility criteria, and multiple GP appointments. Our private prescription service provides faster access following an online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, typically completed within hours rather than weeks.
Orlistat vs Ozempic: Key Differences
Many patients search for orlistat as an alternative to Ozempic, though these medications work completely differently. Orlistat blocks approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, whilst Ozempic affects appetite control through different mechanisms. Both require prescription and clinical assessment, but orlistat offers a non-injectable option for weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Private Prescription Pricing Options
Our competitive pricing makes private orlistat accessible: Generic orlistat 120mg starts from £16.89 for 42 capsules (2-week supply), reduced to £15.20 with code EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg costs £21.50 for the same supply, or £19.35 with discount. Longer supplies offer better value - 12-week packs (252 capsules) cost £95.99 for generic orlistat, just £86.39 with EDM10.
