Who qualifies for Saxenda

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually for Saxenda eligibility. Generally, Saxenda is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor will look for a history of failed weight loss attempts through diet and exercise. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), severe heart failure, or severe kidney disease. Your medical questionnaire helps the doctor determine if Saxenda is safe and appropriate for your health profile.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda (liraglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite. This helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and can lead to eating less and losing weight. Saxenda is a tool to support weight loss when used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It is not a magic bullet and does not guarantee specific weight loss results. Consistent use and lifestyle changes are crucial for effectiveness. Weight loss typically begins within the first few weeks, but significant results often require several months of treatment.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation, especially when starting treatment. These usually lessen over time as your body adjusts. Less common but more serious side effects can include pancreatitis (severe stomach pain), gallbladder problems, or kidney problems. It's important to stop Saxenda and seek medical attention immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or symptoms of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor physician will discuss potential side effects and monitor your progress during treatment.
