How it works: get your Saxenda prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the consultation fee of €25 every 28 days or €35 one-off.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your payment is refunded automatically, so there is no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect Saxenda.

Who qualifies for Saxenda

Saxenda (liraglutide), a GLP-1 receptor agonist, is prescribed for weight management alongside diet and exercise. Your EU-licensed doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if it's appropriate for your case. Generally, this includes:

  • A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
  • A BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.

Your doctor will review your full medical history to ensure there are no contraindications. These include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, or severe heart failure. The doctor always remains the gatekeeper, ensuring your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda works by mimicking a natural hormone called GLP-1, which helps regulate appetite and food intake. It helps you feel fuller sooner and for longer, potentially leading to reduced calorie intake. Please note, Saxenda is a tool to support weight loss, not a magic solution. It is most effective when used with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic timelines for significant weight loss vary, and continuous lifestyle changes are key to sustained results. This medication is part of a comprehensive weight management plan, not a standalone treatment.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Common initial side effects often include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation. These usually lessen as your body adjusts. Less common but more serious side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. You should stop using Saxenda and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor; medical honesty builds trust and helps ensure your safety.
