Choose Your Ideal Treatment Supply Length
Understanding Pack Size Options
When choosing between orlistat and Alli, pack size selection affects both convenience and cost-effectiveness. Generic orlistat 120mg requires a prescription and offers the most comprehensive supply options, from 2-week starter packs to 12-week treatment courses. Alli 60mg provides a lower-strength alternative with 4, 8 and 12-week options available.
Generic Orlistat 120mg Supply Options
Generic orlistat provides the most flexible dosing schedule with four pack sizes available. The 2-week supply (42 capsules) costs £16.89, reduced to just £15.20 with EDM10 discount - ideal for initial treatment assessment. The 4-week pack (84 capsules) at £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) offers a full month's treatment. For longer-term commitment, the 8-week supply (168 capsules) costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10), whilst the 12-week pack (252 capsules) provides maximum value at £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10).
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat Pricing
Xenical 120mg contains identical active ingredients to generic orlistat but commands premium pricing. A 4-week Xenical supply costs £42.99 compared to £32.99 for generic orlistat - saving £10 per month. The 12-week Xenical pack costs £128.99 versus £95.99 for generic, representing £33 savings over three months. Both require prescription following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
Alli 60mg Pack Sizes and Pricing
Alli offers half the strength of prescription orlistat with three supply options. The 4-week pack (42 capsules) costs £28.99 (£26.09 with EDM10), providing lower-dose treatment introduction. Eight-week supplies cost £54.99 (£49.49 with EDM10), whilst the 12-week option at £129.99 (£116.99 with EDM10) offers extended treatment duration. Each Alli capsule contains 60mg orlistat compared to 120mg in prescription versions.
Maximising Savings with Longer Supplies
Extended supply packs offer significant per-capsule savings. The 12-week generic orlistat pack saves £15.60 compared to purchasing six 2-week packs separately. With EDM10 discount applied, total savings reach over £25. Longer supplies also reduce reorder frequency and ensure treatment continuity. Our pharmacy recommends discussing optimal treatment duration with your prescriber during clinical assessment.
Treatment Duration Considerations
Most weight management specialists recommend minimum 12-week treatment courses for meaningful results. Orlistat works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, requiring consistent use alongside reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Shorter 2-4 week packs suit initial treatment trials, whilst 8-12 week supplies support comprehensive weight management programmes. All pack sizes require the same dosing schedule: one capsule three times daily with main meals.
