Orlistat vs Xenical: The Key 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 when taken alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The clinical effect is equivalent – generic orlistat offers substantial savings whilst Xenical provides the branded option for those who prefer it.
Price Comparison: How Much You Save
Generic orlistat 120mg costs £29.69 for a 4-week supply (with EDM10), compared to £38.69 for Xenical – saving you £9 per month. For a 12-week supply, orlistat costs £86.39 whilst Xenical costs £116.09, representing a £29.70 saving. Both options require the same online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
Alli 60mg: The Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli contains half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat at 60mg per capsule. It blocks a smaller proportion of dietary fat compared to the 120mg versions. Alli 60mg costs £26.09 for a 4-week supply (with EDM10). Some patients prefer starting with the lower-strength option before considering prescription-strength treatment.
Which Should You Choose?
If cost is your primary concern, generic orlistat 120mg provides identical clinical benefits at the lowest price. Choose Xenical if you prefer the branded option from Roche. Both require prescription following clinical assessment. Your prescriber will determine which strength and option is most suitable for your individual circumstances during the online consultation process.
