The new @domestic-supply product of the week is ORIGINAL SAXENDA (Liraglutide) 3 PRE-FILLED PENS!!
Take advantage now with a HUGE 25% off discount of SAXENDA LIRAGLUTIDE!!
Saxenda® (liraglutide) injection 3 mg is an injectable prescription medicine used for adults with excess weight (BMI ≥27) who also have weight-related medical problems or obesity (BMI ≥30), and children aged 12-17 years with a body weight above 132 pounds (60 kg) and obesity to help them lose weight and keep the weight off. Saxenda® should be used with a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity.
- Liraglutide comes in 3 FDA-approved forms: Saxenda, Victoza, and generic liraglutide injection.
- Victoza and generic liraglutide are used to lower blood sugar (glucose) in type 2 diabetes.
- Only Saxenda is specifically approved for weight loss, although Victoza/ liraglutide injection may cause weight loss as a side effect (see Can liraglutide be used for weight loss?).
- Unlike your body's natural GLP-1 which works for minutes, liraglutide lasts for 24 hours, which means liraglutide injections only need to be given 1 time a day.
Liraglutide first gained FDA approval on January 25, 2010, under Victoza, for type 2 diabetes, and Saxenda for weight loss. A Victoza generic, called liraglutide injection, was FDA-approved on December 23, 2024. This generic is only FDA-approved to improve blood sugar control in people with Type 2 diabetes.
