No loss with saxenda for five weeks.. do I ask for a change in drug?

[papercipz]

Just that… I’ve lost 18 lbs in 8 weeks but have stalled completely for the last five so I’m on this 13 weeks in total. I’m very happy woth my loss and want to take things slowly but what do I do now? I’ve another 13 kg to get into normal weight for my height etc.
im in Ireland so it’s a strict protocol about who gets it etc. should I ask my gp to change to a different drug.
I have very little suppression and can tolerate fat and sugar very well. My ibs is
all but gone.
what would you do??
thanks

Anyone here to advise please?

I would ask to switch to Mounjaro

If you're eligible for mounjaro then switch to it. Saxenda is the oldest weight loss injection and only targets one receptor, you will get better losses with mounjaro. If you have insulin issues I.e. resistance or prediabetes it will really help with managing your blood sugars and reversing it. Mounjaro is also great for reducing systemic inflammation. I don't know anyone on saxenda or wegovy, maybe it's common in Ireland.
