Who qualifies for Saxenda
Doctors look for specific criteria when considering a Saxenda prescription. Generally, you may qualify if you have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, or controlled hypertension). The doctor assesses your complete medical history to ensure Saxenda is safe and effective for your individual health profile. Certain contraindications or existing conditions might mean Saxenda is not suitable.
What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)
Saxenda, a GLP-1 receptor agonist containing liraglutide, works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite and food intake. It can help you feel fuller sooner and for longer, potentially leading to reduced calorie intake. It's an aid to weight management, not a standalone solution. For best results, it should be used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Weight loss is gradual and varies between individuals, typically seen over several weeks and months.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment. These often improve over time. More serious but rare side effects can occur. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and read the patient information leaflet. If you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or any concerning symptoms, you should contact a doctor immediately. The doctor prescribing Saxenda will discuss potential side effects and when to seek medical attention.
