How does Saxenda Weight Loss Pen Work

Saxenda (liraglutide) injection 3 mg, is an injectable prescription weight loss medicine used for adults with excess weight (BMI ≥27) who also have weight-related medical problems or obesity (BMI ≥30).

It is also for use with children aged 12-17 years with a body weight above 132 pounds (60 kg) and obesity, to help them lose weight and keep the weight off.

Your body naturally produces an appetite hormone known as glucagon-like-peptide (GLP-1) that helps to regulate your hunger

The Saxenda (liraglutide) injection, addresses one of your body's natural responses to weight loss and works like GLP-1 to regulate your appetite, which can lead to eating fewer calories and losing weight.

The Saxenda weight loss pen, should be used with a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity as recommended by the NHS.
