Is there anyone who has not taken Saxenda for a long time and what are the effects?

More reviews about Saxenda can be found here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/88452/saxenda-iniekcja/pytania

I lost 10 kg on Saxenda in half a year, with the first week -3 kg, then 1 kg, then half a kg per week. I was on a dose of 0.6 for a long time, and when it stopped working, I increased it and it started moving again. Since weaning, I have gained 3kg in 3 weeks :( I threw myself on the food and ate, I think, 5x as much as on Saxenda. But on Saxenda I didn't eat much, about 1400kcal a day. Now I want to come back to lose weight, what I have made up for and I am planning a visit to a psychodietician, because without a change in lifestyle and thinking, the kilograms will always come back. I recommend the book "Emotional Eating".

Hello. Can you tell me if it's difficult to use the injections for the dose to be removed for the saxenda. Thank you all

Ok, so I'll describe my adventure. I've been taking Saxenda for quite a long time. A good year... I've lost quite a lot of pounds, about 15... technically without much diet. The drug generally works well, mainly reducing appetite. There may be side effects ( various I tend to occur). After discontinuing this drug, it is almost certain that the weight will start to come back rapidly. Appetite x2... The body will want to recoup the losses. To sum up, the drug is generally ok. However, it is too expensive to take a look. 3x 450 PLN pens are not enough for a full month. (on a full dose the pen is enough for 8 days max) i.e. 24 days for 450 PLN...

Hey. If I'm going to share information about Saxenda, my experiment has just begun, I'm after the second injection – the second day. I'm 42 years old, 97 kg at 180 height, muscular build, but unfortunately genetically I have quite a greasy inside of my body and I've always had difficulties with it to bring my body to a compact mass, stress and irregularity of meals with gluttony and gluttony are not good for you. And murder is known as sweets and fillers. I noticed that my metabolism was very dysregulated, because it was difficult for me to start losing weight despite using short fasts, and this does not help my ambitions to lose weight, so I quickly gave up. We'll see how it goes with Saxenda's injections. On the second injection, I feel a slight decrease in appetite, but also an increased desire to drink water. It's too early to talk about weight loss yet. Feeling good. Further effects will be reported at a later stage of the drug. I'm not a diabetic.
For those interested, I know a peer with insulin resistance. She had six months of prescription saxenda treatment therapy and had lost a lot of weight visually. The yo-yo effect worked, because unfortunately the self-control and habits of poor nutrition remained. In my opinion, after what I've noticed in my friend's opinion, I rate Saxenda positively. The yo-yo effect is a problem of habits or hormones, not a defect of the drug, because every diet should be guarded against the risk of weight gain - i.e. the yoyo effect. Cheers.

I have a question for you... Whether you have information or not, it is more beneficial to extend the phases of increasing the dosage of injections from a weekly portioning to a two-week dose increase mode instead of strictly adhering to the description of the leaflet. At the same time, this will allow you to save money, because the drug is not the cheapest, and at the same time it will prolong the effect of blocking appetite by the body with a prolonged therapy for a longer period of time? After all, you can't increase the dosage of the drug indefinitely. Please let me know how long one therapy can last?

It's the same for me.
It's a waste of money. The effect is miserable and after discontinuation the weight quickly returns to the previous result. Plus, getting tired of diarrhea and risking other side effects. It has little effect on appetite. I continued to eat despite taking this drug. It's better to spend this money on a diet or sports.

To @AweP:

Dose of Saxenda starts at 0.6 mg once a day. Your dose is increased as directed by your doctor, usually weekly.

I have a question about how to dose saxende. I used it 3 years ago and unfortunately I don't remember if the transition from smaller doses to larger doses is after a week or a month. The doctor asked me if I remembered the dosage and I confirmed that I did, but after some time it turned out that I had doubts about how long it would take to switch to a higher dose. Please help and reply.

Hello, the first week I was on saxenda, the dose was 0.6 mg, the second week, the dose was 1.2, I lost 2.5 kg, but I feel worse and worse, because I have nausea all the time, vomiting and stomach aches and diarrhea, my appetite has dropped after saxenda, I will not say, I have always had cravings for something good, now at all, I will give up because I am afraid that with long use of saxenda you can really ruin your health.

I took it, I lost weight, but I decided to reject it, but it took a toll on my health, after the stagnation, the pounds came back, maybe not everything, but 60 / and the last mourned I bought, 😡 defective, I wrote a complaint, so far echo, and the man pays not much at all!!

To @Kasia:

Needles need to be purchased. I wrote about what needles can be used with Saxenda here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/61163/novofine-jakie-igly-zastosowac-do-leku-saxenda

Hi girls,

I was given a dose of 6 mg by the doctor today and I have to start taking 0.6 later next month I have to increase to 1.8

Unfortunately the doctor didn't tell me if it takes once a week?
From what I see the package there are 3 needles so the package will last for 3 days? Please help

Today the doctor offered me just this supposedly miraculous drug, I read about it and your comments, I'm overweight, but for me the problem is that I have no appetite and I eat little, and the drug is to fight appetite, what do I do?

after 3 months break 3 kg came back in general, I lost 9 kg for 9 months, probably not enough I eat and fat is deposited, or diet 1500 and for this I have siofor 3 x1000

Jojo, no, but a month after the break, the weight slowly went up

I already use the 2nd day and do not feel hunger, slightly my head hurts and I want to drink more water, the weight for now slowly descends I'm on a dose of 0.6.

To @Aga Aga: There are currently no clear reports on the effect of Saxenda on the menstrual cycle.

Witam.Mam question about Saxenda, what effect does it have on menstruation? I'm going to start treatment

5 weeks, 6 kg less. I go to the gym and swimming pool. I do not use the diet because I simply have no appetite. So I supplement myself, because I think that vitamins are never too much, especially magnesium and potassium. Overall, I feel good outside of morning reflux from time to time. I do the injection before bedtime.

I am from a month 10 kg less

from October to January and 4 kg in the plus, it does not work for me

I lost 7 kg for 7 weeks keeping a diet of 1000-1200 cal and exercising every day. She had no sucking for food or craving for sweets. After weaning, I have an appetite again and it is difficult for me to maintain 1200 kcal per day, but I try. I am a week after withdrawal, I have not lost anything but I have not gained weight. In the long run, I will probably gain weight, because I start thinking about desserts.

I'm after Saxenda 3 months - I started in September, I finished in December. I started taking injections together the day I went to the gym :) After 3 mcach Weight from 106 to 88! I felt great, without any side effects. I changed my eating habits and stopped saxenda. At this point it is 86 ... only 2 kg in almost 2 months (known holidays, New Year, in the meantime still 2tyg vacation ;) I go to the gym 4 times a week. The difference is amazing, but I know that without saxenda certainly would not have succeeded because it completely suppressed the appetite. For the first week I even had to force myself to eat something, I felt that it was not healthy not to eat almost 1.5 days ... From food literally rejected me. After the first week I introduced 3 meals a day - so as not to starve myself. And so it continues to this day. However, I still have 2 pens left.. if any of you came back to saxenda again? I think it's a great solution that lies in my fridge and looks at me every day. I do not have a yo-yo effect, quite the opposite. But I wonder what happens if he uses it to the end ... Has anyone returned to Saxenda? If so, after what time? In general, I do not feel that I have to, but Libra stood without saxenda ... And as someone wrote- was only the head ..

I've been on saxenda for 6 days, the first two days of massacre - constant belching, nausea and vomiting. Even the smells bothered me. After 6 days, 1 kg less. Before, nothing moved me, no diets, exercises, I will point out that I have hashimoto, hypothyroidism and insulin resistance. Saxende was prescribed to me by an endocrinologist. I have the lowest dose recommended for 2 weeks, then only increasing it. I eat less, I don't feel like sweets – we'll see how long.

I started taking sex end at the end of October, in four months I lost 10 kg and 12 cm in the belly from 124 cm to 112 cm and from 106 to 96 cm. This drug, especially with dose changes and in the first days, turned out to be a golden mean, I felt like everything, especially at the beginning sweet could lie in front of me and there was no problem, now that I reduced the dose to double, and mainly I was on triple with you, I have a wolf's appetite, but I got from the doctor pills for the night and let's hope that they will help, although I know that the effect such as sexenda when increasing doses and at the beginning it is no longer I'll have but undoubtedly the drug works, then it's already the head, and that the head is weak it will be a yo-yo effect, but I'm trying to somehow stick there, treadmills, I bought.

In general, I went down from 98 to 75kg in half a year - from September to December. The diet was strict, but without special exercises. This drug is some magic for me. A lot, a lot of water needs to be drunk. Use appropriate supplements. Blood tests every now and then. Besides weight, I got rid of snoring. But I do not see a special difference in well-being. I have type 1 diabetes, 34 years old

And after two injections I had such vomiting that an ambulance arrived. The whole package will practically go to the trash because I'm afraid to continue. 😔

Joyo effect when I stop taking

Ozempik 0.5 I took for 6 months For the first 2 months ,-10 kg. Later nothing, so I put it away. Cravings for sweets and snacking are back. Yo-yo effect too + 5 kg. I'm trying very hard, but with poor results 😂

I started taking Saxenda 14.01'23-now I'm on a dose of 2.4 (08.02'23). I started with a weight of 85, now I have 83.3. But I think it's mainly because I gave up bread, pasta and potatoes. In general, I do not eat sweets, cakes, I do not drink sweet carbonated. I have hypothyroidism, which I treat with Euthyrox 112.5. In addition, I have been diagnosed with intolerance to milk and chicken eggs - in full. I don't know what to eat anymore, because from everything I feel bloated, burp and I feel like I'm going to burst. Recently, even drinking water provokes a gag reflex. I feel more and more depressed that the lack of effects will soon cease to motivate me to make any efforts.

Hi I have a question I from today I take injections ie the first dose 06.przez week ... I feel good, I'm just curious how much you can lose after a month of treatment???

Monika, I read somewhere that if the weight does not change after 7 weeks of taking, the drug should be discontinued and it must not be taken for people with thyroid problems.

I have been taking saxenda for about 8 months. It doesn't work for me at all. Does not suppress appetite. The scales also stand still. I will add that I have hypothyroidism and hashimoto. I'm wondering whether to buy the drug. Maybe the last time...

Yo-yo effect immediately after discontinuation of the drug, I do not recommend.

I have been taking for about 3 weeks. The first smallest doses caused a loss of 7kg. No exercise and no great movement. I was happy because there were no side effects. Unfortunately, for several days I have been seriously bloating and nausea. The plus is that I actually do not have such an appetite as I sometimes had, I eat because I have to and not that I feel like something. In the evenings I don't eat anything since I've been taking this drug. If someone is wondering whether to take it I recommend. I have a lot more to lose and I hope that it will finally be something that will help me in this and avoid bariatric surgery. Best regards

Hey, I'm on this from 28.10, I have 11 kg less, I feel great, only one minus, I walk constantly sleeping, but I recommend it to everyone!!!!

Hello, looking for a lead on a doctor or dietitian. What will write a prescription . How do you have a bearing is happy to ask for help.

I have been having the drug for 8 days. Weight 5kg down. It is important that I do not have wolf hunger. I eat at 1 p.m. and by the next day I'm full. The swelling from the legs of the hands went away. Wolf hunger is gone. I am satisfied

I'm on lekubod July 1 and for now Minus 25 kg. I introduced a diet and dose of 3 and it is ok

To @Elżbieta: There are no single, specific recommendations for preventive examinations when using Saxenda. The doctor decides about the possible need to perform a specific examination based on the patient's state of health and the symptoms accompanying the therapy.

I am at the third package of saxenda,dose 3.0,at the beginning weight of 5 kg in the minus,now it stands still for a long time,there were severe abdominal pains and constipation. A friend who uses this drug doctor recommended after two months to do tests for the liver and pancreas, is it necessary?

Hi I set two weeks ago and I have already gained back 2kg, there is a greater taste for food

To @fredka: You will find the answer to the question in the attached thread: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/opinie-i-pytania/63673/saxenda-jakie-sa-rezultaty-leczenia-preparatem-saxenda-i-po-jakim-czasie-mozna

After how many doses of saxenda begins to work I take 4 day and nothing

I take from October 2021 and lost 17kg and so far the weight is standing still but I hope that it will continue to move down

I take a month and a half, I eat much less because the appetite is much smaller. So far 10 kg on the minus, so I'm veryoooo satisfied :-)

I use Saxenda under the guidance of a diabetic. I treat m.in insulin resistance. The drug is used 4 months and I have -10 kg less. I received instructions from the doctor to eat meals only smaller and more frequent. Otherwise, it will slow down the metabolism and the yo-yo effect will come.

Hello. I took saxende over 2 weeks ago and I'm disappointed. Nothing works. I still have a wolf appetite. I struggled to get this prescription because the doctor didn't want to prescribe it to me. I have no side effects. I lost weight with kg. I increase the dose and then nothing. I do not know what to buy to make something actually work
