Who qualifies for Saxenda

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Saxenda (liraglutide) is appropriate for your case. Saxenda is typically prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m² (obesity) or ≥27 kg/m² (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, controlled hypertension). Important contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), and pregnancy or breastfeeding. Your online medical questionnaire helps the doctor assess these factors carefully and ensure your safety.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and food intake. This helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and can lead to lower calorie consumption. It's not a 'magic bullet' for weight loss; it's designed to be used as part of a comprehensive weight management program that includes a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic expectations are key: Saxenda supports weight loss but doesn't guarantee specific results, and individual responses vary. It's a tool to aid your journey, not a standalone solution.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These often improve over time. More serious but rare side effects include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, and kidney problems. It's crucial to report any severe or persistent side effects to your doctor via your private Hi-Doctor chat. If you experience severe abdominal pain, with or without vomiting, you should stop taking Saxenda and seek immediate medical attention.
