Compare Prices: Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli 60mg
Orlistat 120mg vs Xenical 120mg: Key Differences
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical prescription strength. The primary difference is cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings whilst delivering the same clinical effect. Both work by inhibiting lipase enzymes in your gut, blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption when taken with each main meal containing fat.
Prescription Strength Orlistat Pricing Comparison
Generic orlistat 120mg: 4 weeks (84 capsules) costs £32.99, reduced to £29.69 with EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg: 4 weeks costs £42.99, reduced to £38.69 with EDM10. This represents monthly savings of approximately £9 when choosing generic orlistat over Xenical. For 12-week supplies, orlistat costs £86.39 with EDM10 versus Xenical at £116.09 - saving over £29.
Alli 60mg: Lower Strength Alternative
Alli 60mg provides half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat. At £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10, it offers an alternative for those preferring lower-strength treatment. However, 120mg prescription strength may be more appropriate for adults with BMI of 30 or above, subject to clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
Which Should You Choose?
If cost is your priority, generic orlistat 120mg delivers identical results to Xenical at lower prices. Some patients prefer branded Xenical, whilst others choose generic orlistat for value. Both require prescription following online clinical assessment and work best alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet with regular physical activity.
