"Saxenda" - New Injectable Weight Loss Med
Wow .. so looks like it was first approved 4 years ago .. I wonder why the drug co. is apparently just now hitting the flashy ads/videos big and hard for it? Possibly they're hoping to fool some of the patients that took Victoza w/o happy results into giving it a try, not realizing it is basically the same drug .. ?

It's not new. I took it over 3 years ago. It's the same drug as Victoza for diabetes, just in double the dose. I had terrible side effects and only stayed on it about a month.
