Why do I have a "mega big belly" when using Saxenda despite losing weight?

If you lose weight sharply with Saxenda, you may have visible excess skin on your stomach. In addition, the drug can cause the occurrence of bloating, which can also be felt as a "mega big belly". If you do not observe a reduction in abdominal circumference or you have additional ailments (such as abdominal pain), I encourage you to consult your doctor again. I also encourage you to take advantage of the advice of a dietitian who will develop a special diet for you. Saxenda should be used as a weight loss medicine with diet and exercise. Physical exercise should help reduce the circumference of the abdomen. If the feeling of "mega big belly" is associated with the flatulence described above, I encourage you to report the occurrence of side effects of the drug. Reporting adverse reactions allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market.
