Why Choose Private Orlistat Over NHS Route?
Fast Access Without NHS Delays
Getting orlistat through the NHS often involves lengthy waiting times for GP appointments and weight management referrals. Our private prescription service lets you access the same prescription-strength orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg immediately. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your online consultation and can issue a prescription the same day if clinically appropriate. Generic orlistat costs just £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical is £42.99 (£38.69 with code EDM10).
Is Xenical Good for Weight Loss?
Xenical contains orlistat 120mg, a clinically proven prescription medicine that works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. When you eat fat, Xenical prevents lipase enzymes from breaking down about one third of that fat, which then passes naturally through your body. This may help reduce calorie intake from dietary fat when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients and work in exactly the same way.
Private Prescription Process
Our streamlined online process takes minutes to complete. Simply fill out a medical questionnaire covering your weight management goals, current health status, and medications. A qualified UK prescriber reviews your information and determines whether orlistat is suitable for you. If approved, your prescription is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched for next day delivery. The entire process bypasses NHS waiting lists whilst maintaining the same clinical standards.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Which Should You Choose?
Generic orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are clinically equivalent - both contain the same active ingredient at the same dose. The key difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers excellent value at £63.99 for 8 weeks (£57.59 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £86.99 for 8 weeks (£78.29 with discount code). Some patients prefer the branded Xenical for peace of mind, whilst others choose generic orlistat for the significant cost savings. Both require the same prescription process and clinical assessment.
Who May Be Suitable for Private Orlistat?
Adults with a BMI of 30 or above may be suitable for orlistat, as well as those with a BMI of 28 or above who have weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your prescriber will assess your individual circumstances during the online consultation. Private prescribing allows faster access for those who meet clinical criteria but don't want to wait for NHS appointments. Remember, orlistat works best when combined with a structured lower-fat diet and regular physical activity.
