Who qualifies for Saxenda

Saxenda (liraglutide) is a prescription medication used for chronic weight management. Our EU-licensed doctors follow strict medical guidelines to determine eligibility. Generally, they look for patients who meet the following criteria:

• Adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
• Adults with a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
• You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Certain medical conditions, such as a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, are contraindications.

The doctor will individually assess your full medical history and current health status through the questionnaire to ensure Saxenda is safe and appropriate for you.

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 helps regulate appetite and food intake. This can lead to:

• Reduced hunger and increased feelings of fullness a few hours after eating.
• Slower stomach emptying, which can help you feel satisfied for longer.
• Weight loss when used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

It's important to understand that Saxenda is not a 'magic bullet'. It supports weight loss efforts but requires commitment to lifestyle changes. Realistic weight loss expectations are typically 5-10% of body weight over several months. It does not replace healthy eating or exercise.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Saxenda can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and tend to be mild to moderate, improving over time as your body adjusts. Common side effects include:

• Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation.
• Headache.
• Dizziness.

More serious, though rare, side effects can occur. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, signs of an allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing), or symptoms of pancreatitis (persistent, severe stomach pain radiating to your back). Always discuss any concerning side effects with your doctor.
