Private Prescription Route: Xenical & Orlistat Available
Xenical Prescription Status in the UK
Xenical 120mg is prescription-only in the UK and cannot be purchased over the counter. However, the private prescription route offers a faster alternative to NHS prescribing without the need for a GP appointment. EverydayMeds provides regulated access through online clinical assessment, allowing you to obtain Xenical or generic orlistat 120mg following prescriber approval.
Private vs NHS Prescription Route
The NHS route typically involves booking a GP appointment, potential waiting lists, and meeting strict eligibility criteria. Private prescription through EverydayMeds eliminates these delays. Complete an online health questionnaire, receive prescriber review within hours, and get your medication dispatched the same day if approved. Both routes provide the same medication - the difference is speed and convenience.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat Pricing
EverydayMeds stocks both branded Xenical and generic orlistat 120mg. Both contain identical active ingredients and work identically. Xenical 4-week supply costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10), whilst generic orlistat 4-week supply costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) - saving approximately £9 monthly. Alli 60mg (lower strength) is also available from £28.99 for 4-week supply.
Online Clinical Assessment Process
Our streamlined process replaces face-to-face GP consultations. Complete a comprehensive medical questionnaire covering your weight management history, current medications, and health conditions. UK-licensed prescribers review your information and issue prescriptions where clinically appropriate. The entire process typically completes within hours, not weeks.
GPhC-Registered Pharmacy Supply
All medications are dispensed by our Leicester-based, GPhC-registered pharmacy using MHRA-regulated supply chains. Xenical and orlistat are sourced through licensed UK pharmaceutical channels ensuring genuine medication quality. Discreet packaging protects your privacy, with tracked next-day delivery available across the UK.
Who May Be Suitable for Private Prescription
Adults with BMI 30 or above, or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure, may be suitable following clinical assessment. The prescriber evaluates your individual circumstances, medical history, and weight management goals. Not everyone will be eligible - suitability depends on your specific health profile.
