Hello. Yesterday it was two weeks since I started taking saxenda. On the scale about -2kg. Everything seems ok, but I have a question. I take it in the morning, after waking up it varies between 6.40-8 and on weekends about 10. I have a feeling of a lump in my throat until noon, nausea especially after eating, I bounce non-stop. Is this normal? If I eat something spicy, I have terrible heartburn. How to relieve yourself? Maybe I can change it and take it in the evening to sleep through the worst mood?

Nausea and nausea are one of the common side effects of Saxenda. These symptoms are reported by more than 1 in 10 patients using the drug, usually temporary and disappear after a few weeks of treatment.
If you think that the time of taking the medicine will alleviate the symptoms, you can change the time of the injections. It is important to use the drug regularly and at the same time every day.
I have attached a link to check the availability of the drug and make a reservation at the pharmacy of your choice:

In addition, to reduce the symptoms of heartburn, you can use one of the over-the-counter preparations. Online and stationary pharmacies offer preparations for emergency use, such as:

If the symptoms persist, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. You can also take advantage of teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I also encourage you to report adverse drug reactions. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
