Private Orlistat Prescription - Start This Week

How Quickly Does Orlistat Start Working?

Orlistat begins blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption immediately after your first dose. Most patients notice gastrointestinal effects within 24-48 hours, particularly if eating higher-fat meals. These effects indicate the medication is working in your digestive system. Unlike NHS routes that may involve weeks of waiting, our private prescription service means you can start treatment this week following online clinical assessment.

Private Prescription Orlistat Prices

Our generic orlistat 120mg costs just £16.89 for 2 weeks (42 capsules), reduced to £15.20 with discount code EDM10. For longer treatment, 12-week supplies cost £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10). Branded Xenical is available from £21.50 for 2 weeks. All prices include the prescription - no separate GP fees. This represents significant savings versus repeated NHS appointments and potential travel costs.

Why Choose Private Over NHS?

The NHS orlistat pathway typically involves multiple GP appointments, potential referrals, and strict eligibility criteria. Our private route offers immediate access for suitable patients. Complete your online consultation today and receive next-day delivery. UK-licensed prescribers assess your BMI, weight-related health factors, and medical history within hours, not weeks.

What to Expect in Your First Week

Orlistat works by blocking lipase enzymes in your gut, preventing absorption of approximately one third of dietary fat from meals. Effects begin immediately but are most noticeable when eating fat-containing meals. Side effects like oily stools or flatulence confirm the medication is working. These effects are minimised by following a lower-fat diet (approximately 15g fat per meal).
