UK Registered DoctorsSaxenda (Liraglutide)
Saxenda is a weight loss medication that works as an appetite suppressant. As well as helping patients lose weight, the medication appears to improve many indicators of cardiovascular risk.
Can I buy Saxenda online?
SAXENDA IS IN STOCK BUT REMAINS IN VERY SHORT SUPPLY. Saxenda (Liraglutide) is available to prescribe in the UK via The Online Clinic. If you complete one of our online medical questionnaires, we can then consider you for this medication. Saxenda (Liraglutide) is available for next day delivery.
How does Saxenda work?
Saxenda contains the active ingredient: Liraglutide. Lirgalutide is a Glucogon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue. GLP-1 is produced naturally in the human body and Liraglutide is a synthetic version of that natural version with 97% amino acid sequence similarity.
Natural GLP-1 is produced in the body in response to food consumption. In the simplest terms, GLP-1 is a messaging system to tell our bodies that no more food is required. By delivering Liraglutide via a simple injection on a daily basis, that messaging system is activated, and we will feel less desire to eat and we will be satisfied with less food. Reduced food consumption should lead to weight loss.
How is Saxenda administered?
Saxenda (Liraglutide) is a daily injection using a very easy to use, dose-adjusted pen that is pre-filled with the medication. All you have to do is set the dial to the correct dosage and inject under the skin of the abdomen. The starting dosage for Liraglutide is 0.6 mg per day. You inject the medication at the same time each day, so choose a time that will always be convenient for you (we recommend the morning). The maximum dosage is 3.0 mg per day, but you must follow the dosing and titration instructions to minimise the risk of side effects. Full instructions are sent with the medication and we provide a helpful video demonstration for all patients after purchase.
If you are prescribed this medication via The Online Clinic, we are on hand to answer any questions you may have about your Saxenda pen.
Side effects of Saxenda
All medications have the potential for side effects but Liraglutide is remarkably well tolerated if taken as directed. Some people experience a little nausea to begin with, but most people find that this dissipates with continued use. Other side effects include indigestion and diarrhoea. A full list of side effects is included on the patient information leaflet, which we make available to patients prior to a purchase. Most people do not get any side effects at all (other than minor nausea at dose increases).
Effectiveness of Liraglutide
Clinical studies have shown Liraglutide to be a highly effective and safe weight loss agent, with people losing clinically significant levels of weight at both the 1.8 mg dose and the 3.0 mg dose. In addition, blood pressure was reduced and there was a marked reduction in levels of C-Reactive Protein (an inflammatory marker associated with cardiovascular risk). Around 65% of patients will achieve meaningful weight loss with Saxenda.

Saxenda Reviews By Our Patients
-
very good no side effects

I started taking Saxenda on the 16th January and today is 29th May. I have lost a grand total of 3 stones, or 42lb. I only have a few pounds to go to reach my target weight. I was a little dubious at first, we’ve all fallen for the miracle diet that promises everything and delivers nothing. I have never had a large appetite, but I do love the wrong things and my only exercise was walking to the fridge or crisp cupboard. So I thought how could Saxenda work, I don’t eat because I’m hungry, I eat because I want it. But it does work, it real...

Saxenda works well at reducing your appetite, but for me the nausea, heartburn and headaches can be a bit much including the price, once you are on the full dosage. It's excellent for a quick fix, I would use it again to shed the last few pounds, but it's imperative that you make and keep healthy lifestyle changes!

Very discreet to store and simple to use. Regarding side effects; I experienced some slight reflux and nausea for the first couple of months. This soon subsided and apart from that I have experienced no other symptoms. Prior to using the product I had extremely poor willpower and binged regularly. I am amazed at how this medication is so effective. It absolutely does stop me from constantly craving food. It has enabled me to have a healthy steady weight loss that I am delighted with. I would absolutely recommend to others.

Saxenda has definitely helped me control my appetite and as a result I have lost 6kg in 8 weeks. There was some nausea at the beginning of the treatment, easily addressed by following the guide.
