Choose Your Weight Loss Treatment - Both Available Now
Orlistat vs Saxenda: Key Differences & Availability
Both orlistat and Saxenda are prescription weight loss treatments now in stock at EverydayMeds. Orlistat works in your digestive system, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, whilst Saxenda is an injectable medication that works as an appetite suppressant. Our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy maintains reliable stock levels of both treatments, ensuring you can access your chosen medication without delays.
Orlistat: All Pack Sizes In Stock
Generic orlistat 120mg capsules are fully stocked across all pack sizes. Our 4-week supply (84 capsules) at £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) offers excellent value for sustained weight management. The 12-week supply (252 capsules) at £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) provides the best cost per capsule for longer treatment periods. Orlistat works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your gut, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Xenical Brand Also Available
Branded Xenical 120mg capsules contain identical orlistat to our generic version but at a premium price. Our 4-week Xenical supply costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10) versus £32.99 for generic orlistat - saving you approximately £9 monthly. Both versions require the same clinical assessment and work identically, so many patients choose generic orlistat for better value whilst achieving the same weight management support.
Saxenda Injectable Treatment
Saxenda contains liraglutide and works differently to orlistat as a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Rather than blocking fat absorption, Saxenda helps regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. This daily injection requires different storage conditions and injection technique training. Both treatments require clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers, but the mechanisms and administration methods differ significantly.
UK Supply Chain Reliability
Our established relationships with MHRA-regulated pharmaceutical suppliers ensure consistent stock availability. Unlike some online pharmacies experiencing supply shortages, EverydayMeds maintains robust inventory management for both orlistat and Saxenda. This means shorter waiting times and reliable access to your prescribed treatment when you need it most.

All in-stock medications dispatch the same day for next-day delivery across the UK. Our Leicester pharmacy processes orders Monday to Friday, with tracked delivery ensuring secure arrival. Whether you choose orlistat capsules or Saxenda pens, your treatment arrives discreetly packaged with all necessary information and support materials.
Clinical Assessment Process
Both treatments require online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers. The process takes minutes to complete, covering your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. Prescribers assess suitability based on BMI, health conditions, and treatment preferences. Subject to clinical approval, your chosen treatment dispatches immediately from our in-stock supply.
