What Is Saxenda?
buy saxenda online; This is an injectable prescription medication specifically approved for weight management alongside dietary changes and increased physical activity for certain adults with excess weight. Saxenda contains liraglutide, a drug classified as a glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) agonist.
Saxenda is a chronic weight management medication. “Like other chronic diseases, obesity treatment needs to be lifelong,” says Elizabeth Mann, M.D., a pediatric endocrinologist at UW Health Kids in Wisconsin. She explains that Saxenda doesn’t fundamentally change the underlying causes of obesity—it only helps manage it.
Additionally, Saxenda is not a replacement for weight-loss surgery, says Seth Kipnis, M.D., the medical director of bariatric and robotic surgery at Jersey Shore University Medical Center. “It can supplement [surgery] or be used for patients who are not eligible for weight-loss surgery,” he adds.
How Does Saxenda Work?
Chemically, GLP-1 agonists like Saxenda are designed to mimic the effects of GLP-1—a hormone your body releases after you eat. Saxenda acts like GLP-1 by triggering a satiety signal in your brain and slowing down movement in your gut. The net effect is feeling more full and less hungry. The natural form of GLP-1, however, only stays in your system for a few minutes. It is broken down more slowly, allowing for a sustained effect over the course of a day.
This injection should be paired with lifestyle modifications due to the fact that one’s “weight set-point” (a theory that our bodies naturally want to return to a set weight, regardless of how one modifies nutrition and activity level) is very hard to change because of metabolic and hormonal processes that preserve weight, explains Dr. Mann. “Saxenda and other GLP-1 receptor agonist weight-loss medications affect those hormones, so lifestyle changes may be more effective,” she continues.
How Is Saxenda Used?
Saxenda comes as a once-daily injection you give yourself just under the skin on your abdomen, thigh or upper arm.
According to manufacturer labeling, the typical starting dose is 0.6 milligrams once daily. The dose is gradually increased to a final maintenance dose of 3 milligrams. Doses can be escalated more slowly if better tolerated. Likewise, a lower maintenance dose of 2.4 milligrams is an option for adolescents if more tolerable.
