Compare Prices: Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli
Orlistat vs Xenical: What's the Difference?
The simple answer is price. Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain exactly the same active ingredient at identical doses. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, supporting weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. Generic Orlistat offers the same clinical effect as branded Xenical but costs significantly less.
Price Comparison: Save Money with Generic Orlistat
Compare our prices with 10% off code EDM10: Orlistat 4-week supply costs £29.69, while Xenical costs £38.69 – saving you £9 monthly. Over 12 weeks, Orlistat costs £86.39 versus Xenical at £116.09, saving £29.70. Both require the same online clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers and are dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester.
Why Choose Generic Orlistat?
Generic Orlistat provides identical clinical benefits at a lower cost. It contains 120mg orlistat, works by inhibiting lipase enzymes in the gut, and may help reduce dietary fat absorption by approximately one third. Many patients prefer generic options for the cost savings, while maintaining the same prescription-only quality and regulatory standards as branded alternatives.
Xenical: The Branded Option
Xenical by Roche is the original branded version of orlistat 120mg. Some patients prefer branded medications, and Xenical offers the same clinical effect as generic orlistat. If budget isn't your primary concern, Xenical provides identical weight management support alongside a lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.
Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli contains 60mg orlistat – half the prescription strength. Available in 4-week supplies from £26.09 with EDM10, Alli may suit those preferring a lower-dose starting point. However, prescription-strength 120mg orlistat (generic or Xenical) blocks a greater proportion of dietary fat absorption.
