Private Prescription Orlistat - Duration & Pricing
How Long Can You Take Orlistat on Private Prescription?
Treatment duration varies between individuals and depends on your response to orlistat and overall weight management goals. Many patients use orlistat for 3-6 months initially, with some continuing longer under prescriber guidance. Private prescription through EverydayMeds allows flexible treatment duration without NHS restrictions - your UK-licensed prescriber will assess ongoing suitability at regular intervals.
Private vs NHS Orlistat - Key Differences
NHS orlistat typically requires GP appointments, potential waiting lists, and strict eligibility criteria. Private prescription offers immediate access following online consultation. Our prices start from £15.20 for 4 weeks (orlistat 120mg with EDM10), significantly faster than NHS routes. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 monthly, Xenical £38.69 monthly - both include the prescription and next day delivery.
Treatment Options & Pricing
Orlistat 120mg (generic): 84 capsules £32.99 or £29.69 with EDM10 - our most popular choice. Xenical 120mg (branded): 84 capsules £42.99 or £38.69 with EDM10 - same clinical effect as generic. Alli 60mg (lower strength): 84 capsules £54.99 or £49.49 with EDM10. All options include prescription, prescriber review, and discreet UK delivery.
Getting Started - Private Prescription Process
Complete our online questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and weight management goals. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information the same day where possible. If approved, your orlistat is dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery. No separate GP appointment required - the prescription is included in the price. Use code EDM10 for 10% off your first and future orders.
Ongoing Monitoring & Support
Private prescription allows flexible monitoring intervals based on your progress. Many patients reorder monthly or bi-monthly supplies, with prescriber reviews ensuring continued suitability. Whether you need orlistat for 3 months or longer-term weight management, private prescription provides the convenience and speed that NHS routes often cannot match.
