Liraglutide is predominantly used to help control blood glucose in type 2 diabetes and to help with weight loss in obese patients who have at least one serious medical condition as a result of the excess weight. Note that this product requires refrigeration.

The medication is a bit disconnected in its marketing toward the conditions it treats; patients who buy liraglutide for diabetes do so under the brand name Victoza, while those who buy liraglutide for weight loss do so under the brand name Saxenda. To be clear, the active ingredients in both of these products is exactly the same; taking both at the same time---as though they were different medications---can easily lead to overdose.

Taking one, though, since it is the same medication, provides benefit in both areas.

Benefits & Use of Liraglutide

In most respects treatment for both diabetes and obesity is the same, and patients typically need to demonstrate a commitment to lifestyle changes before being an issued a prescription to buy liraglutide for either purpose.

The medication is administered via injection, made simple and convenient with injection pens. Each pen contains multiple doses and pens can be adjusted to deliver the desired dose. Administration is once a day, at any time of day, and with or without food according to personal preference.

Patients taking liraglutide stand to gain tremendous benefit, as the medication:

• Stimulates natural insulin secretion
• Is very unlikely to produce severe hypoglycemia
• Lowers triglyceride levels in the blood
• Reduces risk of cardiovascular disease
• Reduces risk of kidney disease
• Reduces risk of heart attack and stroke
• Decreases appetite

Both diabetes and obesity produce many of the same potential complications, as well as often compounding each other and progressing the conditions while worsening the complications they cause. Liraglutide addresses nearly all the major concerns involved in both conditions.

Administration is also largely similar in both conditions:

• Most patients are started on 0.6 mg for one week.
• After one week, if no adverse effects develop, dosage may increase to 1.2 mg per day.
• After another week, dosage may increase to 1.8 mg per day.
• Do not exceed 1.8 mg per day if taking for type 2 diabetes.
• For weight loss, dosage can be increased to 2.4 mg per day after a week of 1.8 mg per day.
• After a week at 2.4 mg, dosage may be increased to 3 mg per day.
• Do not exceed 3 mg per day for any condition.
• Injections should be administered once per day.
• If treatment is missed for 3 or more days, restart treatment at 0.6 mg.

As can be seen above, the primary difference between treating diabetes versus obesity is the maximum daily dose; 1.8 mg for diabetes and 3 mg per day for obesity.

Another dosage consideration is kidney function. Kidney function should be evaluated prior to starting treatment and regularly for the duration of treatment. Regular doctor checkups will also permit screening for other potentially-developing side effects.
