How Orlistat Works - Clinical Evidence & Private Access
Does Orlistat Actually Work for Weight Loss?
Orlistat is clinically proven to support weight management by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Unlike appetite suppressants that work on the brain, orlistat works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes. This prevents fat from being broken down and absorbed, allowing it to pass naturally through your body. When combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet, orlistat may help reduce overall calorie intake from dietary fat.
Private Prescription Route - Skip NHS Delays
While orlistat is available on the NHS, many patients face lengthy waiting times and strict eligibility criteria. EverydayMeds offers a faster private prescription route with UK-licensed prescribers who can assess your suitability online. Complete our clinical questionnaire, receive prescriber review within 24 hours, and get your medication delivered next day if approved.
Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli - Which Works Best?
We stock three options: generic orlistat 120mg (£32.99 for 4 weeks, £29.69 with EDM10), branded Xenical 120mg (£42.99 for 4 weeks, £38.69 with EDM10), and Alli 60mg (£28.99 for 4 weeks, £26.09 with EDM10). Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose - the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect as Xenical but costs approximately £9 less per month.
Who Can Get Private Orlistat Prescription?
Our prescribers may consider orlistat for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Suitability is assessed individually through our online consultation. You'll need to provide current weight, height, medical history, and current medications. If approved, your prescription is included in the price - no separate fees.
