Which Pack Size Should You Choose for Your Treatment?
Understanding Your Orlistat Supply Options
When starting orlistat treatment, choosing the right pack size depends on your treatment goals and budget. Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg are available in multiple supply lengths, each containing identical active ingredients. Generic orlistat offers significant savings - a 4-week supply costs £32.99 compared to £42.99 for Xenical, saving around £10 monthly whilst delivering the same clinical effect.
2-Week Starter Packs
Perfect for first-time users wanting to assess tolerance. Orlistat 42 capsules costs £16.89 (£15.20 with EDM10), whilst Xenical 42 capsules costs £21.50 (£19.35 with EDM10). This allows you to experience how orlistat works alongside your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet before committing to longer supplies. Most patients find gastrointestinal side effects settle within the first two weeks as dietary habits adapt.
4-Week Standard Supply
Our most popular option balancing value and convenience. Orlistat 84 capsules at £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) provides a full month's treatment, whilst Xenical 84 capsules costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). This supply length suits patients establishing their routine and monitoring initial weight management progress alongside dietary changes.
8-Week Value Packs
Excellent value for continuing treatment. Orlistat 168 capsules costs £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10) - equivalent to £31.98 per 4-week period, saving £2 compared to buying two separate 4-week packs. Xenical 8-week supply costs £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10). This option suits patients committed to longer-term weight management support.
12-Week Bulk Supply
Maximum savings for dedicated users. Orlistat 252 capsules costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10) - just £31.99 per 4-week equivalent, saving £15 versus buying three separate 4-week packs. Xenical 12-week supply costs £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). Ideal for patients established on treatment who want the convenience of quarterly orders and maximum cost savings.
Alli 60mg Alternative Options
For those preferring lower-strength treatment, Alli 60mg offers 4-week (£28.99), 8-week (£54.99) and 12-week (£129.99) supplies. At half the prescription strength, Alli typically produces milder gastrointestinal effects whilst still supporting weight management alongside dietary changes. All Alli purchases qualify for 10% EDM10 discount.
