Saxenda is a daily injectable medicine designed for weight loss in people who are overweight or obese (with a BMI that is over 30). They are also known as weight loss pens, weight loss injections, and the skinny jab. You can check your BMI here:
Visit the BMI calculator tab to work out your BMI
If your BMI is above 27, but less than 30, then you can use these injections if you have the following weight-related medical conditions:
This medicine is licensed for people aged 18 years and above.
DO NOT use if you are allergic to liraglutide or any of the other ingredients of this medicine.
It is NOT recommended for people:
Saxenda is designed to suppress your appetite. It contains the active ingredient liraglutide, which mimics the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Liraglutide helps regulate blood sugar by decreasing the production of insulin-opposing glucagon. This slows down the emptying of the stomach, meaning you feel fuller for longer.
The weight loss injections are shown to be very effective alongside a calorie-controlled diet.
Trials carried out by the manufacturer showed that 6 in 10 people lost 5% or more of their body weight, and 1 in 3 people lost more than 10% of their body weight.
Saxenda is injected daily into the upper arm, abdomen, or upper thigh. You can use it at any time of the day, and with or without food. The starting dose is 0.6mg, which is gradually increased at 1 week intervals until you reach 3.0mg, usually around week 5. Once you reach this dose, you can carry on using Saxenda until your treatment period ends.
Treatment should be discontinued after 12 weeks if you have not lost at least 5% of your body weight on the highest dose of 3.0mg.

This treatment may not be suitable for everyone. Xenical (Orlistat) is an oral capsule that prevents some of the dietary fat from being absorbed into the bloodstream. When taken alongside a calorie-controlled diet, you can achieve significant weight loss. Xenical is also available from Click2Pharmacy as both over-the-counter (60mg) and on prescription (120mg).
Saxenda is available for prescription only at Click2Pharmacy. You will be required to fill in a short online consultation form to check for suitability. Once this is approved by a qualified practitioner, a prescription will be issued and the medication will be dispatched the following day.
Weight loss can be challenging at the best of times. It is always best to try a calorie-controlled diet and exercise before considering medical treatments. You can discuss weight loss with your GP or health care practitioner, who can help devise a weight loss plan for you. Alternatively, you can access NHS weight loss information online at:
