Orlistat vs Xenical: What's the Difference?
The key difference between orlistat 120mg and Xenical 120mg is cost, not clinical effect. Both contain exactly the same active ingredient at the same dose. Generic orlistat offers identical therapeutic benefits to branded Xenical at a significantly lower price. Our GPhC-registered pharmacy in Leicester stocks both options, allowing you to choose based on your preference and budget following clinical assessment.
Compare Orlistat and Xenical Prices
Generic orlistat 120mg: 4 weeks (84 capsules) costs £32.99, reduced to £29.69 with discount code EDM10. Branded Xenical 120mg: 4 weeks (84 capsules) costs £42.99, reduced to £38.69 with EDM10. This represents a saving of approximately £9 per month when choosing generic orlistat over Xenical. Both options require prescription following online clinical assessment by our UK-licensed prescribers.
How Both Medications Work
Whether you choose orlistat or Xenical, the mechanism is identical. Both work by blocking approximately one third of the fat you eat from being absorbed in your digestive system. The unabsorbed fat passes naturally through your body. This may help support weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie, lower-fat diet and increased physical activity in adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 or above with weight-related health conditions.

Which Should You Choose?
The choice between generic orlistat and branded Xenical depends on personal preference and budget. Some patients prefer the branded option, whilst others choose generic orlistat for better value. Both are clinically equivalent and subject to the same prescription requirements. Our prescribers can discuss options during your online clinical assessment to help determine the most suitable choice for your circumstances.
