I started saxenda since 2 months and I am on 3 dose since almost two weeks, I didn't loose any weight at all even my appetite still high, only the first week I felt dizzy and tired but then I believe I developed resistance to the drug, I hope to find related blood tests to find out the reason behind such bad result.

I have been on the medication for 40 days. I have lost 17 pounds and was doing fine until two weeks ago. I started feeling nauseated most of the time. Then I started burping what seems like an egg taste/smell. After that came vomiting. I was at 2.4 so I cut back to 1.8. That worked well for about two weeks so I increased it.

The same series of events occurred - twice, two days apart. It's almost like if I eat anything, later that day or night, I am going to be sick. The stomach pain, vomiting, and diarrhea sent me to the ER yesterday where they did an ultra sound and CT scan looking for gall bladder problems, etc. I have a doctor's appointment later today and will see what he says. I know I can't continue with these side effects but hate to give up with the medicine working.

I have been on Sexenda for 1.5 weeks now and have felt nothing, except for the first day I have had no appetite and got a bit burpy. I am a bit worried that this could be my last hope and it may not work for me. So many people say they loose their appetite and have to force themselves to eat, still waiting for this "full feeling".

I am a bit worried that this could be my last hope and it may not work for me. So many people say they loose their appetite and have to force themselves to eat, still waiting for this "full feeling". Could it be that I am a vegan and already eat low fat and few calories, thats why I have no symptoms? I am the enigma that no one can figure out, I count calories 1000 - 1400 cal/day, eat whole foods, never fast food and my blood work looks good. I look at food and gain weight. I am the only " healthy fat vegan". I really need this to work, I can only hope that I will progress and lose weight as I increase my dose. FINGERS CROSSED

At first this worked really well. It did curve my appetite. I got really concerned when I reached 3.0 cause I started having stomach pains and severe constipation. I told my dr. about it but all should could say is reduce the dosage and drink plenty of fluids. I did and I didn't get better until I took the dosage back to 1.2. I was also concerned with the size affects that was of this drug ... Show Full Comment

I told my dr. about it but all should could say is reduce the dosage and drink plenty of fluids. I did and I didn't get better until I took the dosage back to 1.2. I was also concerned with the size affects that was of this drug. Thyroid cancer and heart problems and stomach problems. I am gradually weaning myself off this drug. I haven't lost weight for3 months so to me I don't need to be on something that cost and to be honest I have to do this on my own anyway. All the medicine does is curve the appetite. It's not worth me having thyroid cancer or other side affects down the road.
