Who qualifies for Saxenda

Doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Saxenda is suitable for you. Generally, Saxenda is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. The doctor will assess your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications to ensure Saxenda is safe and effective for your health goals.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist containing liraglutide. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate your appetite, making you feel fuller and less hungry. This helps you reduce calorie intake, leading to weight loss. It's important to understand that Saxenda is a tool to support weight loss, not a magic bullet. It works best when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic timelines show that noticeable weight loss typically occurs within the first few months, but sustained results require long-term lifestyle changes and adherence to the treatment plan. It does not guarantee specific weight loss amounts, nor does it work without your active participation in dietary and exercise modifications.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common side effects, especially when starting treatment, include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild and temporary as your body adjusts. It's crucial to be aware of more serious, though rare, side effects such as pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney problems, and increased heart rate. You should immediately contact a doctor if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or symptoms of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide full guidance on potential side effects and when to discontinue treatment.
