Compare Our Lowest Prices – Orlistat vs Xenical vs Alli
What Are Xenical 120mg Used For?
Xenical 120mg capsules contain orlistat, a lipase inhibitor used for weight management in eligible adults. Following an online clinical assessment, Xenical may be prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or those with a BMI of 28+ with weight-related conditions like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure. Xenical works by blocking approximately one third of dietary fat absorption in the gut, supporting weight loss alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity.

Generic Orlistat vs Xenical 120mg – Same Effect, Better Value
Both generic orlistat 120mg and branded Xenical 120mg contain identical active ingredients at the same clinical strength. The mechanism of action, dosing schedule, and weight management support are clinically equivalent. The primary difference is cost – generic orlistat offers the same fat-blocking effect at substantially lower prices. Some patients prefer branded Xenical while others choose generic orlistat for better value. Your prescriber can discuss which option suits your needs following clinical assessment.
How Xenical and Orlistat Work
Orlistat works locally in the digestive system by inhibiting lipase enzymes responsible for breaking down dietary fat. When you take one capsule with each main meal containing fat, approximately one third of that fat cannot be absorbed and passes naturally through the body. This reduced calorie absorption from fat may support weight management when combined with a lower-fat diet. Unlike appetite suppressants, orlistat doesn't affect the brain – it acts only in the gut to reduce fat absorption.

Alli 60mg – Lower Strength Alternative
Alli 60mg contains half the orlistat dose of prescription-strength products. At £49.49 for 8 weeks with EDM10, Alli provides a lower-strength option for those preferring a milder starting point. While less potent than 120mg formulations, Alli may still support weight management alongside dietary changes and typically causes fewer gastrointestinal side effects due to the reduced dose.
