Saxenda 6mg/ml contains liraglutide as an active ingredient, which can be used as a daily injection to help manage weight. It works by reducing the appetite and helps to reduce weight healthily over long term. It needs to be used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and regular exercise.

Liraglutide is similar to GLP-1, a naturally occurring hormone in the body. GLP-1 is a hormone that regulates appetite, it controls how much you eat and how often you eat. It also slows digestion and gastric emptying, meaning you feel fuller for longer. 

Saxenda is currently out of stock, but you can buy Wegovy,  a more effective weight-loss injection instead. 

Saxenda 6mg/ml can be used in weight management for obese patients with a Body mass index (BMI) of over 30, or 27 if they have a weight-related health condition e.g. diabetes, heart disease, or high cholesterol. 

Please note that no discounts can be applied to this product, due to its limited availability. If applied, the full amount will be requested post-purchase.

This product is no longer in stock, for more information on the most recently approved weight loss medication in the UK, visit our page on Wegovy.
