This has probably been done to death, so apologies if it has.

Has anyone been prescribed this off the GP or a similar weight loss drug and found it to work? Did you have any side affects?

If you have came off it, have you put the weight back on?

Any information on this would be great.

I had awful side effects and never took a 2nd shot.

14 hours of vomiting non stop and stomach cramps, starting 30 mins after injection. Felt perfectly good before hand.

Absolutely zero effects but saxenda isn't available from gp

HelloMiss · 31/03/2024 12:26

That's zero SIDE effects....worked well for me

It works well, but you'll not get weight loss injections from the GP, only through NHS weight loss service. There are newer drugs now, weekly rather than daily injections. Have a look at Wegovy or Mounjaro.
