Who qualifies for Saxenda

When reviewing your case for a Saxenda prescription, the doctor assesses several factors to ensure it's a safe and effective treatment option. Saxenda (liraglutide) is typically prescribed for weight management in adults with:

• A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
• A BMI of 27 kg/m² to less than 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 also consider your overall health, other medications you are taking, and any contraindications to ensure Saxenda is appropriate for your specific situation.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, meaning it mimics a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and food intake. It works by making you feel fuller and less hungry, leading to reduced calorie consumption and, over time, weight loss. It is an injectable medication taken once daily.

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. Weight loss is gradual, and individual results vary. It does not provide instant results and requires consistent use as prescribed by your doctor.

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 starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time as your body adjusts. Other less common but more serious side effects can occur.

It is crucial to discuss any persistent or severe side effects with your doctor. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms like severe abdominal pain, signs of pancreatitis, or severe allergic reactions. Your doctor will provide full details on potential side effects and when to discontinue treatment during your consultation.
