Who qualifies for Saxenda

Doctors prescribe Saxenda (liraglutide) for weight management alongside diet and exercise. To qualify, you typically need a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 to 30 (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor assesses your full medical history during the online consultation to ensure Saxenda is safe and appropriate for your specific health profile. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), and pregnancy or breastfeeding.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite and food intake. This leads to a feeling of fullness, reduced hunger, and ultimately, lower calorie consumption. It's a tool to support weight loss and should always be used as part of a comprehensive weight management plan that includes a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Saxenda is not a 'magic bullet'; it supports your efforts and helps you feel more in control of your eating habits. Realistic weight loss expectations are typically 5-10% of body weight over a year, not rapid, drastic changes.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and headache, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These often improve over time. More serious but less common side effects can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, or kidney issues. It's crucial to report any severe or persistent side effects to a doctor immediately. You should stop using Saxenda and seek urgent medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or signs of a severe allergic reaction.
