Why Choose Private Prescription for Xenical 120mg?
What Are Xenical 120mg Capsules Used For?
Xenical 120mg capsules contain the active ingredient orlistat and are used for weight management in adults. Following clinical assessment, Xenical may be prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or those with a BMI of 28 kg/m² or above who have weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Xenical works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in the gut, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through the body, helping to reduce calorie intake when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Private Prescription vs NHS Route
While Xenical is available on the NHS, accessing it through your GP involves waiting lists and appointment delays. Our private prescription service eliminates these barriers. You can complete an online clinical assessment today and receive prescriber approval within 24 hours, without leaving your home. Our UK-licensed prescribers review your health information and can issue a private prescription where clinically appropriate. This means faster access to treatment without the frustration of NHS delays. Order Xenical 120mg from £19.35 for a 2-week supply with code EDM10.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Which Should You Choose?
Both Xenical 120mg and generic orlistat 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical doses, providing the same clinical effect. The key difference is cost. Generic orlistat starts from £15.20 for a 2-week supply, while branded Xenical costs £19.35 - saving you approximately £9 per month. Some patients prefer the branded option, while others choose generic orlistat for better value. Both require the same clinical assessment and are dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy with next-day delivery. We also stock Alli 60mg (lower-strength version) starting from £26.09 for a 4-week supply.

Getting your Xenical prescription privately is straightforward. Complete our secure online health questionnaire covering your medical history, current medications, and BMI information. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your assessment and determines whether Xenical is clinically appropriate for you. If approved, your prescription is issued and sent to our Leicester-based pharmacy for dispensing.

What to Expect When Taking Xenical
Xenical may help reduce the amount of dietary fat absorbed when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Most patients experience gastrointestinal side effects, particularly when consuming high-fat meals. These effects include oily stools, increased bowel movements, and urgent need to use the toilet. Side effects can be minimised by keeping meals low in fat (approximately 15g per meal) and are often a sign the medication is working. Your prescriber will provide full guidance on managing side effects and optimising treatment outcomes.
