Who qualifies for Saxenda

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if Saxenda is appropriate. Generally, Saxenda (liraglutide) is prescribed for adults 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 type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor will review your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications to ensure Saxenda is safe and effective for you.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and food intake. This means it can help you feel fuller, reduce hunger, and eat less, leading to weight loss. It's important to understand that Saxenda is a tool to support weight management, not a magic bullet. For best results, it should be used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. You won't see results overnight; significant weight loss typically occurs over several weeks or months of consistent use.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common side effects often include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when you first start treatment or increase your dose. These usually lessen over time. Less common but more serious side effects include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney problems, and increased heart rate. If you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or other concerning symptoms, contact a healthcare professional immediately. Your Hi-Doctor will provide full information on potential side effects and when to seek medical attention.
