Generic Orlistat vs Xenical: Make Your Choice
Orlistat 120mg vs Xenical 120mg: What's the Difference?
Generic orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg contain the same active ingredient at identical doses. Both work by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption and require prescription following clinical assessment. Xenical is manufactured by Roche as the original branded version, whilst generic orlistat offers the same clinical effect at a lower cost.
Price Comparison: Generic Orlistat vs Xenical
Generic orlistat provides significant savings over Xenical. A 4-week supply (84 capsules) costs £32.99 for generic orlistat versus £42.99 for Xenical - saving you over £9 monthly. With code EDM10, generic orlistat costs just £29.69 compared to Xenical at £38.69. For 12-week supplies, you'll save £33 choosing generic orlistat at £86.39 versus Xenical at £116.09 (with EDM10).
Which Should You Choose?
If cost is your priority, generic orlistat 120mg delivers identical results at lower prices. Some patients prefer Xenical's established branding, whilst others choose generic orlistat for value. Both are prescription-only medicines requiring clinical assessment by UK-licensed prescribers. Your prescriber will determine suitability based on your BMI and health circumstances.
Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli 60mg provides half the dose of prescription-strength orlistat. At £26.09 for 4 weeks (with EDM10), Alli may suit those preferring lower-strength treatment. However, Alli blocks less dietary fat than 120mg formulations, so clinical effects may be reduced.
