Which Orlistat Option Should You Choose?
Orlistat vs Xenical: The Facts
Both orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same dose. They work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption, supporting weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The clinical effect is equivalent - your choice comes down to budget and brand preference.
Generic Orlistat 120mg Pricing
Our generic orlistat offers exceptional value: 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £32.99, or just £29.69 with EDM10 discount. For longer courses, 12-week supply costs £95.99 (£86.39 with EDM10). This represents significant savings versus branded alternatives whilst delivering identical results.
Xenical 120mg Branded Option
Prefer the trusted Roche Xenical brand? Our 4-week Xenical supply costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10), with 12-week packs at £128.99 (£116.09 with EDM10). Some patients choose Xenical for brand confidence - the clinical effect remains identical to generic orlistat.
Alli 60mg Lower-Strength Alternative
Consider Alli 60mg for a gentler introduction. At half the prescription dose, Alli blocks a smaller proportion of dietary fat with typically milder side effects. 8-week supply costs £54.99 (£49.49 with EDM10). Perfect if you prefer starting with lower-strength treatment.
Taking Orlistat After Gallbladder Removal
Following gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy), your body's fat digestion changes. Orlistat works in the gut by inhibiting lipase enzymes - not requiring gallbladder function. However, individual suitability must be assessed by a qualified prescriber who'll review your medical history during online consultation.
