Saxenda is one of a number of similar drugs that are experiencing a supply shortage due to a surge in demand for injectable weight loss medication.
As one of many clinics that dispense Saxenda, we are subject to supply constraints and we are provided medication via a pharmaceutical wholesaler on a 'just in time' basis with a few days lead time. Whilst we have been aware of a shortage we have now exhausted our quota having taken reasonable steps to limit prescription sizes and not take on new patients for Saxenda.
