Compare Prices: Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli
Orlistat vs Xenical: What's the Difference?
When comparing orlistat and Xenical for weight management, both contain exactly the same active ingredient at 120mg strength. Generic orlistat and branded Xenical work identically to inhibit lipase enzymes in your gut, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat from being absorbed. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your digestive system alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
The primary difference between these prescription weight loss medications is cost. At EverydayMeds, generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 for a 4-week supply with code EDM10, while branded Xenical costs £38.69 - that's a saving of £9 per month choosing the generic option.
