How it works — get your Saxenda prescription in 4 steps

Who qualifies for Saxenda

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Saxenda is an appropriate treatment for you. Generally, you may qualify if you have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. Doctors also consider your full medical history and any other current medications to ensure your safety. Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will be carefully reviewed.

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 regulates appetite, helping you feel fuller, reduce hunger, and eat less. This supports gradual, sustained weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It's important to understand that Saxenda is not a 'magic bullet'. It supports weight management but requires your commitment to lifestyle changes for effective and lasting results. Realistic timelines for noticeable changes often span several weeks to months, as this is not a 'lose 10 kg in a month' solution.

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. These usually lessen over time. It's crucial to report any severe or persistent side effects to your doctor immediately. Red flags that might prompt you to stop treatment and seek urgent medical advice include symptoms of pancreatitis (severe stomach pain), gallbladder problems, or severe allergic reactions. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide full guidance on monitoring and managing side effects, ensuring you know when to stop and seek further help.
