Pre-diabetes and diabetes type 2
Hypertension (high blood pressure)
High cholesterol
Obstructive sleep apnoea.
How does Saxenda work?
it contains the active ingredient liraglutide. Liraglutide is similar to a hormone in the body called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

This is an appetite hormone that helps regulate hunger and is released by the intestines after a meal.

Due to being similar to GLP-1, Saxenda regulates appetite causing you to feel fuller and less hungry. This can lead to eating fewer calories and losing weight.
