Compare Prices: Generic Orlistat vs Branded Xenical
Clinical Equivalence: Why Both Work Identically
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain exactly the same active ingredient at identical doses. Both block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption through the same mechanism - inhibiting lipase enzymes in your digestive system. The key difference lies in cost, not clinical effectiveness. Our UK-licensed prescribers can help determine which option best suits your budget and preferences during your online consultation.
Price Comparison: Substantial Savings with Generic Orlistat
Generic orlistat 120mg offers significant savings over branded Xenical. A 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £29.69 with EDM10 discount compared to £38.69 for Xenical - saving £9 monthly. Over 12 weeks, you save £29.70 choosing generic orlistat (£86.39) versus Xenical (£116.09). Both products require the same online consultation process and deliver identical weight management support alongside your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.

Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Consider Alli 60mg if you prefer starting with half the prescription dose. At £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10, Alli provides a gentler introduction to orlistat treatment. While less potent than 120mg options, Alli still supports weight management when combined with dietary changes. All three products are available through the same convenient online consultation process.
Maximising Your Treatment Success
Regardless of choosing orlistat or Xenical, success depends on maintaining a lower-fat diet with approximately 15g fat per meal. This minimises gastrointestinal side effects whilst optimising weight management results. Take one capsule with each main meal containing fat, up to three daily. Consider a daily multivitamin supplement taken at bedtime to replace fat-soluble vitamins. Your prescriber provides detailed guidance during consultation.
