Who qualifies for Saxenda

Saxenda (liraglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist medication prescribed for weight management. To qualify, a doctor typically looks for:

• An adult with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater (obesity).
• An adult with a BMI of 27 or greater (overweight) who also has at least one weight-related comorbidity such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.
• No history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
• No severe heart failure or severe kidney/liver disease.
• Not pregnant or breastfeeding.

The EU-licensed doctor will individually assess your full medical history from your questionnaire to determine if Saxenda is safe and appropriate for you.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body called GLP-1. This hormone helps regulate appetite and food intake. Specifically, Saxenda:

• Helps you feel fuller faster: It slows down stomach emptying, leading to increased feelings of satiety.
• Reduces hunger: It acts on the brain to decrease appetite and cravings.
• Supports weight loss: When combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, it can lead to significant weight loss.

It's important to understand that Saxenda is not a miracle cure. It's a tool to support weight management, and its effectiveness depends on consistent use and lifestyle changes. It doesn't eliminate the need for healthy eating and exercise, nor does it guarantee specific weight loss results without effort.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and tend to be mild to moderate, improving over time as your body adjusts. Common side effects include:

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea or constipation
• Headache
• Dizziness

You should contact a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of pancreatitis, or severe allergic reactions. The doctor will provide full details on potential side effects and when to seek medical attention. Always follow your doctor's advice and discontinue use if serious side effects occur.
