Pick My Pharmacy is an independent comparison service and not a pharmacy. Where a listing is a referral partner we may earn a commission when you visit them — this never changes prices you pay, ratings, or the order providers appear. Affiliate links use rel="sponsored" and are labelled “Ad – Affiliate”. For Prescription Only Medicines we promote the pharmacy’s clinical service, not a specific medicine, in line with the MHRA Blue Guide. See our affiliate compliance.
What the price covers

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a prescription for alli?▼
No — it is a pharmacy medicine, but a pharmacist must confirm suitability (including BMI criteria).
Is alli the same as Xenical?▼
Same active ingredient (orlistat) but alli is 60mg; Xenical/prescription orlistat is usually 120mg.
Why does a pharmacy on this alli (orlistat 60mg) table have no price?▼
We only publish a provider price when we have verified it against that pharmacy’s own published treatment-service page, with a checked date. A blank cell means the figure is not on file — not that the service is free, and not that we ranked the pharmacy last. Confirm the live price on the pharmacy’s site. Pharmacies can submit a published figure when they claim a listing; payment never fills a cell.
Can a pharmacy pay to rank higher for alli (orlistat 60mg)?▼
No. Payment buys labelled visibility and qualified enquiries, never a better score or a higher row on this table. Referral links are labelled “Ad – Affiliate” and use rel="sponsored". See our methodology.
