Why Choose Private Prescription for Xenical?
Private vs NHS Route - Get Xenical Faster
Whilst Xenical is available on the NHS, private prescription through EverydayMeds offers significant advantages. No waiting for GP appointments, no lengthy NHS assessment queues, and faster access to treatment. Our UK-licensed prescribers can review your suitability through a comprehensive online consultation, with Xenical dispatched the same day if clinically appropriate.
Xenical 120mg - How It Works
Xenical contains orlistat 120mg, which works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed in your gut. This unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body, helping reduce calorie intake when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Unlike appetite suppressants that affect the brain, Xenical acts locally in your digestive system.
Private Prescription Pricing
Xenical 120mg pricing with 10% EDM10 discount: 2-week supply (42 capsules) £19.35, 4-week supply (84 capsules) £38.69, 8-week supply (168 capsules) £78.29, and 12-week supply (252 capsules) £116.09. All prices include prescription, clinical assessment, and discreet UK delivery. Compare this to generic orlistat 120mg from £15.20 for 2 weeks - clinically identical active ingredient at lower cost.
Who May Be Suitable for Xenical
Xenical may be suitable for adults with BMI 30 or above, or BMI 28+ with weight-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Suitability is determined through individual clinical assessment by our UK prescribers. The online consultation covers your medical history, current medications, and weight management goals to ensure safe prescribing.
Starting Your Private Prescription Journey
Complete our confidential online assessment covering your health history and weight management needs. A UK-licensed prescriber reviews your information and determines if Xenical is clinically appropriate. If approved, your prescription is dispensed by our Leicester-based GPhC-registered pharmacy and delivered discreetly to your address with next day delivery available.
Managing Expectations and Side Effects
Xenical works best when combined with a lower-fat diet (approximately 15g fat per meal). Common side effects include oily stools and increased bowel frequency, particularly with high-fat meals. These effects often reduce as your diet adapts. Most patients find keeping dietary fat low significantly minimises side effects whilst maximising Xenical's effectiveness.
