Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli: Make Your Choice Today
Same Active Ingredient, Different Strengths and Prices
Alli orlistat 60mg capsules, generic orlistat 120mg, and Xenical 120mg all contain the active ingredient orlistat, which works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. The key differences lie in strength and cost. Generic orlistat 120mg offers the most cost-effective prescription option, while Xenical provides the same clinical effect as a branded product. Alli 60mg offers half the prescription strength for those preferring a lower-dose starting point.
Generic Orlistat 120mg: Best Value Option
Generic orlistat 120mg provides identical clinical effects to Xenical at a significantly lower cost. A 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £32.99, reduced to £29.69 with code EDM10. This represents substantial savings compared to Xenical while delivering the same fat-blocking mechanism. Following online clinical assessment by a UK-licensed prescriber, generic orlistat may be prescribed for adults with suitable BMI and health circumstances.
Xenical 120mg: The Branded Choice
Xenical 120mg, manufactured by Roche, contains the same orlistat 120mg dose as the generic version. Some patients prefer branded medications, and Xenical offers this option at £42.99 for a 4-week supply (£38.69 with EDM10). While more expensive than generic orlistat, Xenical provides identical clinical benefits in blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from absorption.
Alli 60mg: Lower Strength Alternative
Alli orlistat 60mg capsules offer half the prescription strength, suitable for those preferring a gentler approach to weight management. At £28.99 for a 4-week supply (£26.09 with EDM10), Alli provides an accessible option for weight loss support. The lower dose typically results in milder gastrointestinal effects while still contributing to fat absorption reduction when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Cost Comparison: Maximise Your Savings
For 12-week supplies, generic orlistat costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10), while Xenical costs £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). This represents savings of over £29 when choosing generic orlistat. Alli 60mg costs £129.99 (£116.99 with EDM10) for a 12-week supply. Code EDM10 provides 10% off every order for both new and returning customers, maximising value across all options.
How to Choose Between These Options
Consider your budget, preference for branded vs generic medication, and desired strength. Generic orlistat 120mg offers maximum clinical effect at the lowest cost. Xenical 120mg provides the same benefits with branded assurance. Alli 60mg suits those preferring lower-dose treatment. All work by inhibiting lipase enzymes to reduce dietary fat absorption and must be used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and regular physical activity.
