What Is SAXENDA® Used For?

SAXENDA® is a prescription medication known as a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, which is primarily used to manage obesity in adults and children aged 12-17 years. If you’re looking to buy SAXENDA® online, it is important to go with authorized distributors to get the authentic product.  People who can use this treatment are individuals who have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or higher, or 27 kg/m² with at least one weight-related condition, and children (12-17 years) who weigh above 132 pounds (60 kg).  The medication mimics an intestinal hormone that signals satiety to the brain, so it reduces the appetite in patients, leading to less calorie intake. There are clinical studies that show SAXENDA® helped patients achieve and maintain desired weight loss results. But only when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and physical activity. 

SAXENDA® Indications

Before you buy SAXENDA® wholesale for your clinic, you should be thoroughly familiar with when exactly you should and shouldn’t use this treatment. SAXENDA® is a 3 mg injection that is used to treat obese adults with (a BMI) of 30 kg/m² or more, or individuals who have a BMI of 27 kg/m² or more together with hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or dyslipidemia.  It’s important to stress that SAXENDA® is not intended for the treatment of type 1 or type 2 diabetes but is used for chronic weight management in adults. Patients aged 12 to 17 years who weigh more than 60kg and are obese can use this medicine as a part of their regimen.

SAXENDA® Administration Technique

The only way to use SAXENDA® is subcutaneously. Healthcare professionals who sell this product to their patients should make sure to order SAXENDA® online from reputable and verified suppliers.  The injection should be administered once a day, regardless of the mealtime using a pre-filled, multi-dose pen. The recommended starting dose is 0.6 mg per day, which should be increased gradually over several weeks. Each week patients should increase their dosage to 0.6 mg until they reach the recommended 3 mg. This is done to avoid gastrointestinal side effects which can sometimes happen.  Injections should be given in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm, with the injection site rotated to reduce the risk of tissue hypertrophy and lipodystrophy. 

SAXENDA® Side Effects

If you decide to buy SAXENDA® and prescribe it in your practice, there are side effects you need to be aware of and inform all patients interested in this medicine.  Most commonly, SAXENDA® causes symptoms like:
  • Nausea 
  • Diarrhea 
  • Constipation 
  • Vomiting
  • Redness, swelling, or pain at the site of injection
  • Increased heart rate
Less common but serious side effects are pain in the upper stomach area, fever, jaundice, and clay-colored stools. Also, kidney problems, hypoglycemia, depression, and serious allergic reactions can appear. SAXENDA® has been associated with an increased risk of thyroid C-cell tumors in animal studies. It is not known if SAXENDA® directly causes thyroid C-cell tumors. However, patients with a personal or family history of MTC or patients with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 should not use SAXENDA®.

SAXENDA® vs. Competition

You should get familiar with their mechanism of action before you decide to buy SAXENDA® online. When it comes to weight management, Wegovy and Xenical are the two most common SAXENDA® competitors on the market.  Similar to SAXENDA®, Wegovy is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, but the biggest benefit here is that it can be administered weekly, not daily. This medicine works just as good as SAXENDA®. However, both drugs share similar side effects, including nausea and potential risks like pancreatitis and kidney issues​. Xenical works through a different mechanism. It inhibits the absorption of dietary fats, which can aid in weight loss when combined with a low-fat diet. Unlike the other two competitors, Xenical is available over-the-counter in a lower dose.

Where Can I Buy SAXENDA®?

If you decide to purchase SAXENDA® and distribute it to your patients, it’s necessary to do so from authorized distributors only to get the verified product. If you’re not sure how to find verified channels to buy from, our sales team will be happy to assist you.
