Who qualifies for Saxenda

Saxenda (liraglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist typically prescribed for chronic weight management. When an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case for Saxenda, they look for specific criteria:

• A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
• A BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, or dyslipidaemia.
• You must be an adult patient.
• No contraindications such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), pancreatitis, severe gastrointestinal disease, or pregnancy/breastfeeding.

The doctor assesses your full medical history provided in the questionnaire to ensure Saxenda is safe and appropriate for your health profile.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body called GLP-1, which regulates appetite and food intake. It helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and slows down gastric emptying. This can lead to a reduced calorie intake and, over time, weight loss.

It's important to understand that Saxenda is not a magic bullet. It is most effective when used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic weight loss expectations are around 5-10% of your initial body weight over several months. It does not provide instant results, and consistent lifestyle changes are crucial for long-term success.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common side effects usually occur at the beginning of treatment and tend to decrease over time. These include:

• Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation
• Headache
• Dizziness
• Fatigue

More serious, though rare, side effects can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney problems, and increased heart rate. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., swelling of the face, lips, or throat, difficulty breathing).

Always follow your doctor's advice. If side effects are persistent or severe, or if you develop any concerning symptoms, you should stop treatment and consult a healthcare professional.
