Who qualifies for Saxenda

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Saxenda is a suitable treatment. Generally, doctors look for adults (18-75 years old) with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² to <30 kg/m² (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity such as prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), or severe kidney or liver disease. The doctor will carefully review your medical history and current health status through the online questionnaire to ensure Saxenda is safe and appropriate for you.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist containing liraglutide. It works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and food intake. This can lead to feeling fuller for longer, reducing hunger, and consequently, a reduction in calorie intake and weight loss. It's important to understand that Saxenda is a tool to support weight management, 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 typically 5-10% of body weight over a year. It does not offer instant results or guarantee a specific amount of weight loss without lifestyle changes.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects often include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when first starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time. More serious but rare side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. You should stop using Saxenda and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or symptoms of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide full details and guidance on managing potential side effects and when to discontinue treatment.
