Description
Saxenda® (liraglutide) is a prescription-only, once-daily injectable medicine used to support weight management in adults who are overweight or obese, and who may also have weight-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or type 2 diabetes. Saxenda works in a similar way to a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite, making you feel fuller for longer and helping to reduce overall food intake. It is used alongside a healthy, reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to support effective weight loss and long-term weight management. Saxenda comes in a convenient pre-filled pen for self-injection, with dosage gradually increased under the guidance of your healthcare professional. This treatment should always be prescribed and monitored by a qualified clinician, who will determine if it is suitable for you.
