Orlistat vs Xenical: The Facts
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain the exact same active ingredient at identical doses. They work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in your gut, supporting weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The clinical effect is identical - the main difference lies in the price.
Price Comparison
Generic orlistat offers substantial savings compared to branded Xenical:
Orlistat 120mg prices: 4-week supply £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10) | 8-week supply £63.99 (£57.59 with EDM10) | 12-week supply £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10)
Xenical 120mg prices: 4-week supply £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10) | 8-week supply £86.99 (£78.29 with EDM10) | 12-week supply £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10)
Over a 12-week treatment course, choosing orlistat over Xenical saves you approximately £30 even after discounts.
