Who qualifies for Saxenda

Doctors consider several factors to determine if Saxenda is an appropriate treatment. Generally, Saxenda (liraglutide) is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obese), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² to less than 30 kg/m² (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor will assess your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications during the online consultation to ensure Saxenda is safe and effective for you.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite. It helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and can lead to a decrease in food intake and ultimately weight loss. It is not a magic pill; it is designed to be used as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic expectations are crucial: weight loss varies among individuals, and it's a tool to support lifestyle changes, not a standalone solution. The doctor will discuss realistic timelines and potential outcomes based on your individual case.

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 first starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time. More serious but rare side effects can occur, and the doctor will discuss these with you. It's important to report any persistent or severe side effects to a healthcare professional immediately. You should stop Saxenda and seek medical attention if you experience symptoms like severe abdominal pain (which could indicate pancreatitis) or signs of an allergic reaction.
