Saxenda® – Frequently Asked Questions
Saxenda® is a prescription daily injectable medication containing liraglutide, a GLP‑1 receptor agonist. It’s approved for chronic weight management in adults with obesity (BMI ≥ 30) or overweight (BMI ≥ 27) with at least one weight-related condition. It’s also approved for teens aged 12–17 with obesity
It mimics the hormone GLP‑1 to increase feelings of fullness and slow stomach emptying, helping decrease appetite and promote sustained weight loss
Saxenda is injected once daily into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm using a pre-filled pen. Dosage starts low and increases weekly over 4 weeks to reach the maintenance dose of 3 mg/day
Clinical studies show average weight loss of 5–10% of body weight over 56 weeks, with many achieving near 7–8%. Teens also benefit, though at more modest levels
Some users notice changes within a few weeks. If you haven’t lost at least 5% of your weight after 12 weeks at the maximum tolerated dose, your doctor may reassess treatment
No—Saxenda® must be combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for best results
- Saxenda® is daily with moderate weight loss (~5–10%).
- Wegovy/Ozempic use semaglutide and are taken weekly, offering higher average weight loss (~10–15%)
Saxenda is UK-approved for weight loss; Ozempic is for diabetes, with Wegovy specifically for weight loss.
Common, usually mild, side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, headache, fatigue, and bloating—all often transient
Rare but more serious side effects may include:
- Pancreatitis
- Gallbladder issues
- Hypoglycemia (especially in diabetics)
- Thyroid C-cell tumors (contraindicated in those with personal or family history)
- Kidney problems or depression
Contact your provider if you experience severe symptoms.
While no direct contraindication exists, alcohol may amplify side effects and increase calorie intake. Medical guidance is recommended
Saxenda has not been studied with other prescription weight-loss medications or supplements. Combining therapies may affect drug absorption and safety records
Yes, it’s FDA-approved for adolescents (12–17) with obesity, used alongside diet and exercise
Treatments are typically longer-term. Studies show sustained weight loss at 3 years when combined with lifestyle changes. Ongoing evaluation with your provider is essential.
