How it works — get your Saxenda prescription in 4 steps

Who qualifies for Saxenda

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors carefully assess each patient to determine if Saxenda is a suitable treatment. Generally, Saxenda (liraglutide) is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² to <30 kg/m² (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, or controlled hypertension. The doctor will look at your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications to ensure Saxenda is safe and effective for you. This individual review ensures you receive appropriate and responsible care.

What Saxenda actually does (and doesn't do)

Saxenda is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate appetite and food intake. It works by mimicking a natural gut hormone, making you feel fuller and less hungry, which can lead to reduced calorie intake and weight loss. While Saxenda can be an effective tool, it is designed to be used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It's not a 'magic bullet' for instant weight loss; typical results are gradual and vary among individuals. The doctor will discuss realistic expectations and the importance of lifestyle changes during your assessment.

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 can occur, which your doctor will discuss. It's crucial to report any persistent or severe side effects to a healthcare professional immediately. The doctor will advise you on when to consider stopping treatment, for example, if you don't achieve a certain percentage of weight loss after a specific period, or if side effects are unmanageable.
