How long does each Saxenda pen last?
We recommend following the manufacturers guidelines when starting Saxenda. Each pen contains 18mg and can be dialled to deliver the following doses: 0.6mg, 1.2mg, 1.8mg, 2.4mg and 3.0mg.
The following dosing schedule should be followed:
- Week 1 – 0.6mg each day
- Week 2 – 1.2mg each day
- Week 3 – 1.8mg each day
- Week 4 – 2.4mg each day
- Week 5 and onwards – 3mg each day
If you are taking Saxenda for the first time, then you will require 3 pens for the first month, and that is when you are likely to see any benefit.
After that, and once you have reached the 3.0mg dose, each pen will last for 6 days. At this point you will need a box of 5 pens every 30 days.

How does Saxenda work?
The active ingredient in Saxenda is Liraglutide, a medication which is similar to a naturally occurring hormone in your body which is called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1). This is an appetite hormone that helps regulate hunger and is released by the intestines after a meal. Liraglutide helps to reduce your appetite and makes you feel fuller, which may lead to you consuming fewer calories and therefore losing weight. When paired with a low-calorie diet and regular exercise, this treatment can help you to lose weight and keep it off.
What is the difference between Saxenda, Liraglutide and Victoza?
The active ingredient (also known as the generic name) in both Saxenda and Victoza is liraglutide.
Victoza is a treatment for type 2 diabetes and the maximum dose available is 1.8mg.
Saxenda is licensed for Obesity and the dose goes up to 3.0mg.
