How to Stop Taking Saxenda

Most people that start taking Saxenda have a goal of coming off the medication eventually.

After all, the purpose of it is to help with weight loss.

Once you’ve achieved that, it makes sense to start to think about stopping treatment.

People think about stopping Saxenda for several different reasons.

If you’re thinking of stopping due to side effects, please speak to a member of your healthcare team, they may be able to recommend some supporting treatments to help you to manage your symptoms. Most side effects of Saxenda can be managed with medication until they naturally subside. Supporting treatments are actually included as part of the consultation fee for myBMI patients. This is so that you can have the best start possible if you’re finding it difficult to tolerate your weight loss medication at first. Others choose to stop taking Saxenda because it hasn’t been successful for them. If this is the case for you, please speak to your healthcare team or email our team at [email protected]. One of our clinicians might be able to give you some advice after a consultation. Please know that there are options available for you if you’re still struggling to shift any weight with Saxenda.

Unfortunately, there’s no official guidance on how you should stop taking Saxenda.

Because of this, we recommend that you speak to your GP or prescriber if you’re considering stopping treatment. They should advise you on the best way to stop for your circumstances. For example, if you’re struggling to tolerate Liraglutide or are having severe side effects, you may be told to stop taking it immediately. If you do experience severe or serious side effects, please seek urgent medical help and make sure to mention that you’re using Saxenda. Many people reach their ideal weight and find that they want to stop taking Saxenda.

In this case, you may be advised to gradually reduce your dose.

Some clinicians advise this to minimise the risk of weight gain and to make sure that the lifestyle changes you’ve made are effective. There’s currently no timeframe on how long you should take Saxenda for, so we take each case on an individual basis. If you’re unsure whether weight loss medications are the right thing for you, our prescribers are specially trained in weight management and can let you know what your options would be. If they agree that a weight loss medication could help you and are willing to prescribe it after your consultation, they will work with you to agree on a medication regime. Before you consider stopping Saxenda, you should make sure that the changes you’ve put in place are effective for you.

Many people stop taking weight loss medications and gain weight again.

This is usually because they haven’t managed to implement lasting changes.

We would only advise stopping Saxenda if you either can’t tolerate the medicine, or if you’re at a place where you can control your weight through diet and exercise.

How long is Saxenda effective?

Saxenda comes in a 3ml pre-filled injection pen. When you first start Saxenda, a single pen will last 17 days and the first full pack of five pens will last six weeks.

"Excellent and impressive service. I’m a 1st time client and just wanted to say a massive ‘thank you’ to PrivateDoc for their wonderful, speedy, and discreet service. This is what I found: I completed the detailed online consultation Wednesday 17th June evening. This was reviewed & approved by a Doctor (22.39) same evening. I’ve been updated via email at each stage of the process, from initially advising that I would not be charged if the Doctor did not approve my prescription / another email advising exactly when my consultation had been reviewed & approved by a Doctor, through to advising that my prescription had been dispatched. I even got a text message informing me of my delivery time slot (14.18-15.18) on Friday 19th June along with the DHL delivery person’s name. I am really pleased with the way my prescription (for Saxenda) was packaged: well sealed/ wrapped in “Smart Insulation” which is 100% Pure Wool & is compostable & biodegradable or can be returned via Woolcool #letsboxclever. There was even suggestions on the pack for alternate uses of the wool-clever & useful👍 But I’m particularly impressed with the two frozen gel packs that enabled the product to arrive at the correct temperature & the detailed instructions for use, storage, side effects, & FAQs that were printed in plain legible English. Also contact information for their Customer Service team who will arrange for a member of their clinical team to contact you to discuss & offer advice on side effects and any other concerns: Monday-Friday, 09.30am-5pm. 100% recommendation from me and I will be recommending this company to everyone I can. Thank you for a truly great first experience with PrivateDoc’s excellent service⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "
