Xenical vs Alli: Understanding the Difference
When comparing whether Xenical works better than Alli, the key factor is dosage strength. Xenical contains 120mg orlistat (prescription-only), whilst Alli contains 60mg orlistat - exactly half the dose. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, but Xenical's higher dose may provide more significant support for weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
2-Week Supply Options
Perfect for trying orlistat for the first time or bridging between longer supplies. Orlistat 120mg 2-week supply (42 capsules) costs £16.89, or £15.20 with EDM10. Xenical 2-week supply costs £21.50, reduced to £19.35 with our discount code. Note that Alli requires 42 capsules for a 4-week supply due to its 60mg strength.
4-Week Supply: Popular Starting Choice
Our 4-week supplies offer better value per capsule. Generic orlistat 120mg (84 capsules) costs £32.99, down to £29.69 with EDM10 - saving you over £3. Xenical 4-week supply is £42.99, or £38.69 discounted. Alli 4-week supply uses just 42 capsules at £28.99, reduced to £26.09 with code EDM10.
8-Week Supply: Enhanced Value
Longer supplies provide significant savings. Orlistat 8-week supply (168 capsules) costs £63.99, down to £57.59 with EDM10 - excellent value for extended treatment. Xenical 8-week supply is £86.99, reduced to £78.29. Alli 8-week supply (84 capsules) costs £54.99, or £49.49 discounted. Choose 8-week supplies for better cost-effectiveness whilst maintaining treatment consistency.
12-Week Supply: Maximum Savings

Choosing Between Generic and Branded
Generic 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 when taken with meals. Generic orlistat offers substantial savings: a 4-week supply saves approximately £9 compared to Xenical, whilst maintaining the same therapeutic benefit. Your choice may depend on personal preference and budget considerations.
