Orlistat vs Xenical: The Key Differences
Generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain exactly the same active ingredient at identical doses. Both 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 primary difference is cost - generic orlistat offers significant savings without compromising on clinical effectiveness.
Price Comparison: Generic vs Branded
Our current pricing shows substantial savings with generic orlistat. A 4-week supply of orlistat costs £32.99 (£29.69 with EDM10), whilst Xenical costs £42.99 (£38.69 with EDM10). Over a 12-week course, you save over £30 by choosing generic orlistat at £95.99 vs Xenical at £128.99. Both options are dispensed from our GPhC-registered pharmacy with the same quality standards.
Which Should You Choose?
For most patients, generic orlistat provides excellent value whilst delivering identical clinical results to Xenical. Both require the same prescription process through our online clinical assessment. Some patients prefer the branded option for reassurance, whilst others choose generic for the cost savings. Your prescriber can advise which option suits your needs during consultation.
Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli contains half-strength orlistat at 60mg per capsule, offering a gentler introduction for those preferring lower-dose treatment. At £28.99 for a 4-week supply (£26.09 with EDM10), it provides another option alongside the prescription-strength alternatives.
