Which Orlistat Option Should You Choose?
Orlistat vs Xenical: The Clinical Facts
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. The clinical effect is equivalent - both block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption through the same mechanism. The difference lies purely in branding and cost, not effectiveness.
Generic Orlistat 120mg - Best Value Option
Our generic orlistat 120mg offers the most cost-effective weight management solution. Starting at £15.20 for 2 weeks (42 capsules) with EDM10, you save approximately £9 monthly compared to branded Xenical. A 12-week supply costs just £86.39 with discount - ideal for sustained weight management programmes alongside your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
Xenical 120mg - The Branded Choice
Manufactured by Roche, Xenical 120mg provides the same orlistat benefits with established branding. At £19.35 for 2 weeks with EDM10, some patients prefer this option. The 12-week supply at £116.09 offers convenience for longer treatment periods. Both options require the same clinical assessment and prescription process.
Alli 60mg - Lower Strength Alternative
For those preferring half-strength dosing, Alli 60mg blocks a smaller proportion of dietary fat. At £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10, it may suit those wanting a gentler introduction to orlistat treatment. The 12-week supply costs £116.99 with discount code.
