How Xenical Works & Private Prescription Benefits
Does Xenical Actually Work for Weight Loss?
Xenical contains orlistat 120mg, a clinically proven prescription medicine that works by blocking approximately one third of the dietary fat you consume. Unlike appetite suppressants that act on the brain, Xenical works locally in your digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes. This prevents fat absorption, and the unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. Clinical studies demonstrate Xenical can support weight management when combined with a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Private Prescription vs NHS Route
Getting Xenical privately through EverydayMeds offers significant advantages over the NHS route. Skip lengthy waiting lists and avoid the need for face-to-face GP appointments. Our online clinical assessment can be completed in minutes, with UK-licensed prescribers reviewing your application typically within hours. Once approved, your prescription is dispensed immediately from our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester and dispatched for next-day delivery. The prescription cost is included - no separate consultation fees.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat - Your Options
We offer both branded Xenical and generic orlistat 120mg. Both contain identical active ingredients at the same strength, providing clinically equivalent results. Generic orlistat offers excellent value at £29.69 for 4 weeks (with EDM10), while branded Xenical costs £38.69 for the same period. Some patients prefer the branded option, whilst others choose generic orlistat for cost savings. Both require the same online prescription process and clinical assessment.
