Buy Saxenda is a weight loss medicine that contains the active
ingredient liraglutide. It is similar to a naturally occurring
hormone called GLP-1 that is released from the intestine after a
meal. Saxenda is an injection that is used once a day. Saxenda
makes you feel full for longer and therefore less hungry, which
helps patients to eat less and in turn reduce their body weight.
The reduced appetite helps you to lose weight and keep it off in
the long term. When you join Private Doc we will assess your
individual circumstances to see if we think Saxenda will help
with your weight management.
Uses
This medication is used with a doctor-approved exercise,
behavior change, and reduced-calorie diet program to help you
lose weight. It is used by certain overweight people, such as
those who are obese or have weight-related medical problems.
Losing weight and keeping it off can lessen the many health
risks that come with obesity, including heart disease, diabetes,
high blood pressure, and a shorter life.Liraglutide is similar
to a natural hormone in your body (incretin). It works by
controlling your appetite.

and each time you get a refill. Learn all preparation and usage
instructions. If you have questions, ask your doctor or
pharmacist.

upper arm as directed by your doctor, usually once daily. Your
doctor will start you on a low dose first to decrease your risk
of stomach/abdominal side effects, and gradually increase your
dose. If more than 3 days have passed since your last
liraglutide dose, ask your doctor if you should restart the
medication with the low dose to reduce your chance of side
effects. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
Before using, check this product visually for particles or
discoloration. If either is present, do not use the liquid.
Before injecting each dose, clean the injection site with
rubbing alcohol. Change the injection site each time to lessen
injury under the skin.

has recommended
How does Saxenda work?
Saxenda (liraglutide 6mg/ml) is a self-injectable weight loss
treatment. It contains the active ingredient liraglutide which
is very similar to a naturally occurring hormone in your body
called GLP-1.
After a meal GLP-1 is naturally released from your intestines to
help regulate your blood sugar levels and reduce the amount of
glucagon in your body. Glucagon is a naturally occurring hormone
which works by inhibiting the action of insulin. As a result, it
makes you feel less hungry, slows down the emptying of your
stomach and makes you feel ‘fuller’ for longer.
