Pack Size Comparison: Find Your Ideal Supply Length
Orlistat vs Xenical: Identical Effects, Different Prices
When choosing between Orlistat and Xenical, the key difference is cost rather than clinical effectiveness. Both contain 120mg of the same active ingredient and block approximately one third of dietary fat absorption. Generic Orlistat 120mg offers significant savings: a 4-week supply costs £29.69 with EDM10, compared to £38.69 for branded Xenical. Over a 12-week treatment period, choosing generic Orlistat saves you nearly £30 while providing identical weight management support alongside your reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet.
2-Week Supply: Ideal for First-Time Users
Starting with a 2-week supply allows you to assess how your body responds to treatment. Orlistat 42 capsules cost £15.20 with EDM10, while Xenical 42 capsules cost £19.35. This shorter supply helps you adapt to the lower-fat dietary requirements and understand the gastrointestinal side effects before committing to longer treatment periods. Most patients find side effects reduce significantly once they adjust their fat intake to approximately 15g per meal.
4-Week Supply: Most Popular Choice
Our 4-week supply (84 capsules) represents the most popular choice among patients. Orlistat 84 capsules cost £29.69 with EDM10, offering excellent value while providing sufficient time to establish effective dietary habits. This supply length allows you to experience the full benefits of treatment while maintaining flexibility in your weight management approach. Following clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers, most patients find 4-week supplies ideal for ongoing treatment cycles.
8-Week Supply: Better Value for Established Users
For patients established on treatment, 8-week supplies offer improved value. Orlistat 168 capsules cost £57.59 with EDM10 - equivalent to £7.20 per week compared to £7.60 per week for 4-week packs. Xenical 168 capsules cost £78.29 with EDM10. This supply length suits patients who have successfully adapted their diet and want to reduce ordering frequency while maintaining consistent weight management support alongside regular physical activity.
12-Week Supply: Maximum Savings
Our 12-week supply delivers maximum savings for long-term treatment. Orlistat 252 capsules cost £86.39 with EDM10 - just £6.92 per week. Xenical 252 capsules cost £116.09 with EDM10. These extended supplies are ideal for patients committed to comprehensive weight management programmes. The significant cost savings help support sustained treatment while you work towards your weight management goals with dietary and lifestyle changes.
Alli 60mg: Lower-Strength Alternative
Alli 60mg offers half the strength of prescription Orlistat, providing a gentler introduction to lipase inhibitor treatment. Available in 4-week (£26.09), 8-week (£49.49) and 12-week supplies (£116.99 with EDM10), Alli may suit patients preferring lower-strength treatment or those seeking to minimise gastrointestinal side effects while still receiving weight management support.
