Weight Loss Injections

Saxenda is a daily self-administered injection to support weight loss for adults with a BMI >27 who are using a calorie-controlled diet. 

The active substance in Saxenda, liraglutide, is a ‘glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist’ which acts on the parts of your brain that regulate appetite, to increase feelings of fullness and lowering feelings of hunger. Saxenda is approved by the European Medicines Agency.

Saxenda is not a solution on its own, but when used as part of a calorie-controlled diet can help the establishment of new healthy eating habits.
