Why Choose Orlistat for Weight Management?
How Orlistat Supports Weight Loss
Orlistat is a prescription-only weight loss medicine that works by blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume. Unlike stimulant-based treatments, orlistat acts locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down fat. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, which may help reduce your overall calorie intake from dietary sources. This mechanism can support weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Same Active Ingredient, Different Price
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose, providing clinically equivalent effects. The key difference lies in cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings without compromising on quality. A 4-week supply of orlistat costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Both options are dispensed from our GPhC-registered pharmacy following the same rigorous clinical assessment process.

Professional Online Prescription Service
Our streamlined online consultation process connects you with qualified UK-licensed prescribers who assess your suitability for orlistat treatment. The clinical assessment considers your BMI, medical history, current medications, and weight-related health factors. Orlistat may be suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 28 kg/m² or above with weight-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Following prescriber approval, your medication is dispensed by our Leicester-based pharmacy and delivered discreetly to your address with next day delivery available.
Getting Started with Orlistat
Starting orlistat treatment is straightforward through our regulated online service. Complete our comprehensive health questionnaire, which takes approximately 10 minutes, covering your medical history and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines whether orlistat is clinically appropriate for your circumstances. If approved, choose from our range of orlistat products - generic orlistat for maximum value or branded Xenical if you prefer the original formulation. Apply code EDM10 at checkout for automatic 10% savings on every order. Your prescription is included in the price, eliminating the need for separate GP appointments whilst maintaining the same clinical standards expected from any UK pharmacy.
