Compare Orlistat vs Xenical Pricing from UK Pharmacy
Orlistat and Xenical: Identical Active Ingredient
Orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg are clinically equivalent medications containing the same active ingredient at the identical dose. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, supporting weight management alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet. The primary difference is manufacturer and cost - Xenical is the branded version made by Roche, while orlistat is the generic alternative from various manufacturers.
Cost Comparison: Significant Savings with Generic Orlistat
EverydayMeds offers both options at competitive prices. Generic orlistat 120mg costs £32.99 for 4 weeks (£29.69 with EDM10), while branded Xenical costs £42.99 for 4 weeks (£38.69 with EDM10). Over a 12-week course, patients can save approximately £27 by choosing generic orlistat (£86.39) versus Xenical (£116.09). Both require the same prescription following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli contains orlistat at half the prescription dose (60mg versus 120mg). While available at a lower strength, Alli costs £26.09 for 4 weeks with EDM10 - similar to generic prescription orlistat pricing. Many patients prefer prescription-strength orlistat 120mg for potentially greater effect, dispensed following proper clinical assessment through our GPhC-registered pharmacy.
