Is Orlistat Available Over the Counter in the UK?
Orlistat 120mg is not available over the counter in the UK - it requires a prescription from a qualified healthcare professional. This prescription-only medicine (POM) can only be supplied following clinical assessment by a UK-licensed prescriber. EverydayMeds provides convenient online consultations, allowing you to access prescription orlistat without visiting your GP. Our clinical team assesses your suitability based on BMI, health conditions, and weight management goals.
How Prescription Orlistat Works for Weight Loss
Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your digestive system. This prescription weight loss medication inhibits lipase enzymes, preventing fat breakdown and absorption. Unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, reducing calorie intake when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Orlistat may help support weight management alongside increased physical activity and lifestyle changes.
Orlistat vs Xenical: Choose Your Prescription Option
EverydayMeds offers both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg. Both contain identical active ingredients with the same clinical effect - the key difference is cost. Generic orlistat provides excellent value at £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical costs £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10). Our prescribers will discuss which option suits your preferences and budget during your clinical assessment.
Prescription Weight Loss Pricing and Savings
Our competitive pricing includes prescription, clinical assessment, and pharmacy dispensing. Orlistat 120mg starts from £16.89 for 2 weeks, reduced to £15.20 with discount code EDM10. Longer supplies offer better value: 12-week supplies cost £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10). All customers receive 10% off every order with code EDM10, whether new or returning. Your prescription treatment is dispatched next day from our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy.
