Buy Prescription Weight Loss Tablets Online UK
Prescription Weight Loss Treatment Options
EverydayMeds supplies three clinically-proven weight loss treatments through our GPhC-registered online pharmacy. Orlistat 120mg generic offers the most cost-effective option at £16.89 for 42 capsules (£15.20 with EDM10), whilst branded Xenical 120mg provides the same active ingredient for £21.50. Alli 60mg offers a lower-strength alternative at £28.99 for 42 capsules. All treatments work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption and may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
How Orlistat Weight Loss Tablets Work
Orlistat inhibits lipase enzymes in your digestive system, preventing approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, potentially reducing calorie intake from fat. The medication acts locally in the gut rather than affecting your brain, making it different from appetite suppressants. Clinical effects vary between individuals, but orlistat may contribute to weight reduction as part of a structured weight management programme including dietary changes and increased physical activity.
Online Prescription Process
Our streamlined online consultation eliminates the need for GP appointments whilst maintaining clinical safety. Complete our medical questionnaire covering your health history, current medications, and BMI details. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and issues a prescription where clinically appropriate. Treatment is typically suitable for adults with BMI 30+ or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Your prescription is dispensed by our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy and dispatched for next day delivery.
Orlistat vs Xenical - Clinical Comparison
Generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose, providing equivalent clinical effects. The primary difference is cost - generic orlistat saves approximately £9 per month versus Xenical. Both require prescription following clinical assessment and work through the same mechanism of blocking dietary fat absorption. Some patients prefer branded Xenical whilst others choose generic orlistat for value. Your prescriber can advise which option suits your circumstances.

Safety Information and Side Effects
Orlistat may cause gastrointestinal side effects including oily stools, increased bowel movements, and oily spotting. These effects are directly related to dietary fat intake - keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) significantly reduces side effects. Most patients find effects diminish as they adapt to a lower-fat diet. Take one capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three times daily. A daily multivitamin taken at bedtime is recommended as orlistat may reduce absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
