Saxenda Price Comparison UK

Compare UK prices for Saxenda (liraglutide) across GPhC-registered online pharmacies. Every listing shows the medicine price alongside the fees that sit beneath it, so you can see the complete cost before starting a consultation.

Prices verified July 2026. Saxenda is a prescription-only medicine. It cannot be bought without a clinical assessment and approval from a registered prescriber, and this page does not recommend or promote its use.

What is Saxenda (Liraglutide)?

Saxenda contains the active ingredient liraglutide. It was one of the first GLP-1 receptor agonists licensed in the UK for chronic weight management. Unlike Mounjaro and Wegovy, which are weekly injections, Saxenda is taken once daily. Whether it is appropriate for you is a matter for the registered prescriber who assesses you.

Saxenda is supplied by pack size rather than by milligram strength. Prices are for reference only and change frequently. Confirm the final total at the provider’s checkout before paying.

Who is Saxenda for?

Eligibility for Saxenda in the UK is set by the licensed indication and assessed by a registered prescriber, not by a comparison site. Broadly, a prescriber will consider weight management treatment for adults with:

  • a body mass index of 30 or above, or
  • a body mass index between 27 and 30 alongside a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, raised cholesterol, obstructive sleep apnoea or type 2 diabetes.

Meeting these thresholds does not guarantee a prescription. The assessment also covers your medical history, current medicines and whether treatment is clinically appropriate for you.

Who should not take Saxenda

Saxenda is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. Other conditions and medicines may also rule it out. Disclose your full medical history during the consultation — the assessment only protects you if it is answered honestly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Prices change frequently, so we do not publish a fixed figure here. The comparison table above shows the current checked price per pack across GPhC-registered UK pharmacies, including compulsory fees. Saxenda is supplied by pack size, so the monthly total depends on how many pens your prescription covers.

Saxenda contains Liraglutide, which has a shorter half-life than Semaglutide or Tirzepatide. It needs to be taken daily to maintain effective levels in your body.

Saxenda can be injected at any time of day, with or without food. Follow the dosing instructions given by your prescriber and the patient information leaflet supplied with your pens.

Often yes. Unlike some weekly pens, Saxenda packs may not include needles. You will need 4mm or 6mm needles (like NovoFine) and a sharps bin.

Cost depends on pack size and dose, and Saxenda is priced by pack rather than by milligram strength. Compare the current checked totals for each medicine using the tables on this site.
