Who qualifies for Saxenda
Saxenda (liraglutide), a GLP-1 receptor agonist, is prescribed for weight management alongside diet and exercise. An EU-licensed doctor will assess your medical history and current health to determine if it's appropriate for you. Generally, doctors look for patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will also be carefully considered during the review.
What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)
Saxenda works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and food intake. It helps you feel fuller sooner and for longer, which can lead to reduced calorie intake and weight loss. It's an aid, not a magic bullet; sustained results require commitment to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Weight loss is gradual, with typical results becoming noticeable over several weeks and months. It is not a cure for obesity but a tool to support your weight management journey.
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 or increasing the dose. These often improve over time. More serious, though rare, side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and be aware of warning signs. If you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or any other concerning symptoms, stop the medication and seek immediate medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor will provide comprehensive guidance on what to expect and when to seek help.
