Why Choose Private Prescription Over NHS Route?
How Xenical and Orlistat Pills Work
Xenical pills work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed in your digestive system. The active ingredient orlistat inhibits lipase enzymes that break down fat, meaning unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. This can support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Private vs NHS Prescription Route
The NHS provides orlistat but with significant barriers. GP appointments can take weeks, strict eligibility criteria apply, and many patients face long waiting lists for weight management services. Our private prescription service eliminates these delays. Complete an online consultation, get assessed by a UK-licensed prescriber within hours, and receive your prescription orlistat without leaving home.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Same Effect, Better Value
Generic orlistat 120mg contains identical active ingredients to branded Xenical at the same dose. Clinical effects are equivalent, but costs differ significantly. Our generic orlistat 4-week supply costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both require the same prescription process and offer identical fat-blocking benefits.
Available Treatment Options
We stock three orlistat options: Generic orlistat 120mg from £29.69 per month, branded Xenical 120mg from £38.69 per month, and Alli 60mg (lower strength) from £26.09 per month. All prices include 10% discount with code EDM10. Pack sizes range from 2-week supplies to 12-week supplies, with longer courses offering better value.
Quick Online Prescription Process
Our streamlined process takes minutes, not weeks. Complete a comprehensive health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Your orlistat is then dispensed by our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy and dispatched with next-day delivery.
Who May Be Suitable for Private Prescription
Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 and above with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Individual assessment determines suitability. Our prescribers consider your complete health profile before approving treatment, ensuring safe, appropriate prescribing.
