Why Choose Private Prescription for Orlistat Weight Loss
Private vs NHS Route - Get Orlistat Faster
While orlistat is available on the NHS, accessing it privately offers significant advantages. NHS prescriptions often involve waiting lists, multiple GP appointments, and lengthy eligibility assessments. Our private prescription service eliminates these delays. Following a comprehensive online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers, eligible patients can access orlistat 120mg from £29.69 for 4 weeks with code EDM10. The same clinical standards apply - but without the wait.
How to Lose Weight with Orlistat - The Complete Process
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your gut. When combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet, this can support significant weight management. Our private prescription process begins with a detailed health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and weight loss goals. UK-licensed prescribers review every application individually, ensuring orlistat is clinically appropriate for your circumstances.
Orlistat Options Available Privately
We offer three orlistat options through private prescription. Generic orlistat 120mg provides the most cost-effective option at £57.59 for 8 weeks with EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredients but costs £78.29 for 8 weeks with discount. For those preferring lower strength, Alli 60mg is available at £49.49 for 8 weeks with code EDM10. All options require clinical assessment and work best alongside dietary changes.
Online Clinical Assessment - Professional Standards
Our online assessment matches NHS clinical standards without the waiting time. UK-licensed prescribers evaluate your BMI, medical history, current medications, and weight-related health factors. Orlistat may be suitable for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. The prescriber determines suitability - not everyone will be eligible regardless of payment route.
Delivery and Ongoing Support
Once prescribed, orlistat is dispensed by our GPhC-registered Leicester pharmacy. Next day delivery ensures you can start treatment immediately. All medications are sourced through MHRA-regulated supply chains with the same quality standards as high street pharmacies. Discreet packaging protects your privacy. Our pharmacy team provides ongoing support throughout your weight loss journey with orlistat.
Maximising Weight Loss Results with Orlistat
Orlistat works best when dietary fat is kept low - approximately 15g per meal. High-fat meals increase gastrointestinal side effects significantly. Most patients find side effects reduce as they adapt to healthier eating patterns. Taking a daily multivitamin at bedtime supports fat-soluble vitamin absorption. Regular monitoring helps track progress and adjust treatment as needed.
