Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/03/2015 -- Marketed under the name, Saxenda, Liraglutide, an injectable diabetes drug, was approved by the FDA in 2014 to treat those patients who have tried unsuccessfully to lose weight. After a one year study, which was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, reports reveal that the drug is, in fact, effective in treating uncontrolled weight gain, with study subjects losing an average of 18 pounds over a one-year period. Although many insurance companies initially hesitated to approve Saxenda for weight loss, the drug is now being prescribed by physicians across the country for overweight patients who have a body mass index of 30 or greater or patients with a body mass index of 27 accompanied by one other weight related condition, such as high blood pressure.

Like most prescription medications, many patients did experience mild to moderate side effects, including nausea, diarrhea, constipation and vomiting. Other more rare side effects could include inflammation of the pancreas, gallbladder disease, reduced kidney function and sudden declines in blood sugar. Aside from weight loss, patients were noted to have improved blood pressure and the delayed onset of type 2 diabetes. The downside of Saxenda for weight loss is that many patients did notice a return of the weight after the drug was discontinued.

Because Diet Doc is a medical weight loss program, they are now able to prescribe Saxenda for weight loss to their patients following a satisfactory doctor consultation and review of the system. Other qualified patients who join the Diet Doc team may find their specially formulated prescription hormone diet treatments more compatible with their weight loss goals. Their powerful, pure prescription hormone treatment has the ability to generate the loss of 20 or more pounds per month when combined with Diet Doc's nutritionist-designed and patient specific meal and snack plans. This combination works in unison to force stored fat out of the cells in the belly, hips, thighs, underarms and buttocks. The fat is released into the bloodstream where it is quickly burned for fuel and flushed from the system. In addition to their prescription hormone diet treatments, which now includes Saxenda for weight loss, Diet Doc offers an impressive collection of specially formulated, safe and effective, FDA approved and U.S. manufactured, diet products that help their patients over the initial weight loss hurdles by controlling hunger and food cravings while preventing loss of energy and dieting headaches.
