Compare Orlistat vs Xenical Costs & Order Online
Private Prescription Route - Skip NHS Delays
Accessing orlistat through a private prescription eliminates NHS waiting times and GP appointment delays. Our online clinical assessment can be completed today, with prescriptions typically approved within hours. This regulated route provides the same clinical oversight as your GP surgery, but with significantly faster access to treatment.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Identical Clinical Effect
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain exactly the same active ingredient at identical doses. The key difference is price - generic orlistat offers substantial savings whilst delivering the same clinical effect. Orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
How Private Prescribing Works
Complete our online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications and BMI details. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your medication is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours from consultation to delivery.
Who May Be Suitable for Private Prescription
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or BMI 28 kg/m² with weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Suitability is assessed individually by our prescribers following your online consultation. Treatment must always be used alongside dietary changes and increased physical activity.
