Understanding How Orlistat Works vs Appetite Suppressants
Orlistat doesn't stop hunger or act as an appetite suppressant. Instead, it works in your digestive system by blocking lipase enzymes that break down dietary fat. This means approximately one third of the fat you eat passes through your body unabsorbed. Unlike appetite suppressants that affect brain chemistry, orlistat acts locally in the gut and isn't absorbed into your bloodstream in significant amounts.
Orlistat 120mg Pack Sizes and Pricing
Our generic orlistat 120mg capsules offer excellent value across all pack sizes. A 2-week supply (42 capsules) costs £16.89, reducing to just £15.20 with EDM10. The 4-week pack (84 capsules) is £32.99 or £29.69 with discount. For longer treatment courses, choose our 8-week supply (168 capsules) at £63.99, saving £6.40 with EDM10 at £57.59. The best value is our 12-week pack (252 capsules) priced at £95.99, reduced to £86.39 with code EDM10—a saving of £9.60.
Xenical vs Generic Orlistat: Same Active Ingredient
Xenical 120mg contains identical orlistat to our generic version. Both work the same way and have the same clinical effect. The main difference is price—Xenical costs approximately £10 more per month. Xenical 2-week packs cost £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10), whilst 4-week supplies are £42.99 (£38.69 with discount). Choose 8-week packs at £86.99 or 12-week supplies for £128.99, with EDM10 savings of £8.70 and £12.90 respectively.
Alli 60mg: Lower Strength Option
Alli contains half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat at 60mg per capsule. This lower strength typically produces milder side effects while still blocking dietary fat absorption. Alli 4-week packs (42 capsules) cost £28.99, or £26.09 with EDM10. The 8-week supply (84 capsules) is £54.99, reduced to £49.49 with discount. For extended treatment, choose the 12-week pack (252 capsules) at £129.99, saving £13 with code EDM10 at £116.99.
Choosing the Right Pack Size for Your Treatment Plan
Healthcare professionals typically recommend starting with a 4-week supply to assess tolerance and response. Longer packs offer better value—the 12-week supply provides the best cost per capsule. Consider your treatment goals when selecting pack size. All orlistat products require taking one capsule three times daily with meals containing fat, so calculate your needs accordingly. Remember that orlistat works best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet with no more than 15g fat per meal.
