Weight Loss
"I have been on Sexanda now for a little over 3 weeks.  24 days to be exact.  I have lost 7 pounds to date.  The first week was awful for me.  I experienced terrible headaches, nausea, heartburn and insomnia.  I was hesitant to continue the drug as I felt terrible.  I spoke to my doctor who advised me not to up my dose the second week so I continued taking Saxenda at 0.6 for 2 weeks.  Miraculously, my side effects lessened up by the 10th day and I was happy I didn&#039;t stop.  I just increased my dose to the 1.2 and feel some nausea and a slight headache once again but no where near as bad as previously. My doctor said everyone&#039;s tolerance level is different and as long as I am losing I could go back down to .06. No need to increase if losing."
