Private Orlistat Prescription: Skip NHS Delays
How Orlistat Works – Not an Appetite Suppressant
Orlistat doesn't suppress appetite or affect your brain like traditional diet pills. Instead, it works locally in your digestive system by blocking lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This prevents approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed, allowing it to pass through your body naturally. The medication requires a prescription at 120mg strength and must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet for optimal results.
Private Prescription Benefits vs NHS Route
Getting orlistat through our private prescription service offers significant advantages over the NHS route. You can skip lengthy waiting lists, avoid multiple GP appointments, and receive your medication within days rather than weeks or months. Our UK-licensed prescribers review your online health assessment and can issue a prescription if clinically appropriate, often within 24 hours of your application.
Orlistat vs Xenical – Same Effect, Different Price
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain the identical active ingredient at the same dose. The clinical effect is equivalent – the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers substantial savings: 4-week supply costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) compared to Xenical at £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). That's approximately £9 monthly savings without compromising on effectiveness.
