Saxenda (liraglutide) is an injectable medication approved for weight management in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older with obesity or overweight who have weight-related medical problems. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss. Saxenda is used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Benefits:

  • Helps adults and adolescents lose weight and maintain weight loss.
  • Reduces appetite by promoting a feeling of fullness.
  • Supports improved weight-related health outcomes, such as blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
  • Can aid in long-term weight management when combined with lifestyle changes.
  • Administered via a convenient, pre-filled pen for ease of use.

Dosage:

  • The starting dose is 0.6 mg once daily.
  • The dose is gradually increased weekly in 0.6 mg increments until reaching the full dose of 3.0 mg daily.
  • Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for dose escalation to minimize side effects.

Warnings and Precautions:

  • Saxenda may increase the risk of thyroid tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma. Report any symptoms such as a lump in the neck, hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or shortness of breath.
  • Not recommended for individuals with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2.
  • Use with caution if you have a history of pancreatitis. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain or persistent nausea.
  • May cause or worsen gallbladder issues, such as gallstones. Watch for signs like severe stomach pain, fever, or jaundice.
  • Not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Saxenda is not approved for use in individuals with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

Usage Instructions:

  • Administer Saxenda as a subcutaneous injection once daily, at any time of the day, with or without meals.
  • Inject into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm, rotating injection sites daily to prevent skin irritation.
  • Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and the medication guide provided with the pen.

Storage Information:

  • Store unused Saxenda pens in the refrigerator at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C).
  • Once in use, the pen can be kept at room temperature (59°F to 86°F or 15°C to 30°C) for up to 30 days.
  • Keep the pen cap on to protect from light. Do not freeze or expose to excessive heat.

Common Side Effects:

  • Nausea, especially during dose escalation.
  • Vomiting and diarrhea may occur.
  • Constipation and abdominal pain are possible.
  • Some individuals experience low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), particularly when used with other medications.
  • Injection site reactions, such as redness or swelling, can occur.

    Some communication problems more than once.

    It always takes longer for delivery than they say and the small ice pack is always melted.
