Which Pack Size is Right for Your Treatment Plan?
Understanding Orlistat Duration of Action and Pack Sizes
Orlistat capsules are taken three times daily with meals containing fat, making pack size selection crucial for uninterrupted treatment. Each capsule works locally in your gut to block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. With dosing at one capsule per main meal, you'll use 21 capsules weekly - helping you calculate exactly which supply length suits your treatment plan.
2-Week Starter Packs - Perfect for First-Time Users
Our 42-capsule packs provide exactly 2 weeks of treatment, ideal for those beginning their weight management journey. Orlistat 120mg costs £16.89 (£15.20 with EDM10), whilst Xenical 120mg is £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This shorter supply lets you assess tolerance and effectiveness before committing to longer treatment periods. Two-week packs are particularly suitable if you're trying orlistat for the first time or returning after a break.
4-Week Monthly Supply - Most Popular Choice
Our 84-capsule monthly packs offer excellent convenience for established users. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), providing outstanding value compared to branded Xenical at £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Monthly supplies work well for regular prescription routines and offer better per-capsule value than fortnightly packs. Alli 60mg monthly packs contain 42 capsules for £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10) as the lower dose requires different calculations.
8-Week Extended Supply - Better Value Options
For committed users, 168-capsule packs provide 8 weeks of uninterrupted treatment. Orlistat 120mg costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10) - significantly better value per capsule than shorter supplies. Xenical 8-week packs are £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10). Extended supplies reduce reorder frequency whilst maximising savings. Alli 60mg 8-week supply contains 84 capsules at £54.99 (£49.49 with EDM10).
12-Week Maximum Savings Packs
Our largest 252-capsule supplies offer the best value for long-term treatment. Generic orlistat costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) - exceptional savings compared to smaller packs. Xenical 12-week supplies are £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). These extended packs suit established users confident in their treatment response. Both orlistat and Alli 12-week packs provide maximum convenience and cost-effectiveness for ongoing weight management programmes.
Calculating Your Ideal Pack Size
Consider your treatment timeline when selecting pack sizes. First-time users often prefer 2-4 week supplies to assess response. Established users typically choose 8-12 week packs for better value and convenience. Remember that orlistat works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet - longer supplies support sustained commitment to your weight management plan.
