Orlistat vs Xenical: Comparing All Supply Options
When choosing between generic orlistat and branded Xenical, the active ingredient and clinical effect are identical - both contain 120mg orlistat per capsule. The key difference lies in cost and your preferred supply duration. Our 2-week starter packs allow you to assess tolerance, whilst 12-week supplies offer maximum convenience and savings for established users.
2-Week Supply: Ideal for New Users
Perfect for first-time users, our 2-week packs contain 42 capsules. Generic orlistat costs £16.89 (£15.20 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This shorter supply allows you to evaluate how well you tolerate the medication whilst following a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet alongside your treatment.
4-Week Supply: Standard Monthly Treatment
Our most popular option provides 84 capsules for one month's treatment. Orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), offering excellent value compared to Xenical at £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). This duration suits most patients establishing their weight management routine with regular prescriber reviews.
8-Week Supply: Extended Convenience
For established users, 8-week packs containing 168 capsules reduce reordering frequency. Generic orlistat costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10). This supply duration works well for those who have successfully adapted to a lower-fat diet and experience predictable tolerance.
12-Week Supply: Maximum Savings
Our largest packs provide exceptional value with 252 capsules lasting three months. Orlistat costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) - a saving of £9.60 compared to buying three 4-week supplies. Xenical costs £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10), saving £12.78. These packs suit committed users following long-term weight management programmes under healthcare professional guidance.
How to Choose Your Supply Duration
Consider your experience with orlistat, budget, and treatment goals. New users should start with 2-week supplies to assess tolerance. Established users benefit from longer supplies offering greater convenience and savings. All strengths work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when taken three times daily with meals. Remember that both orlistat and Xenical require prescription following online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
