You can buy Saxenda online in the UK from registered and regulated clinics and pharmacies, but you need a prescription. You can get a prescription by filling out a simple online form.
However, if you’re looking for a GLP-1 medication to support weight loss, Saxenda may not be the best option.
Wegovy will soon be available to purchase online with a prescription, and research has shown that Wegovy is a more effective drug than Saxenda.
Wegovy leads to more weight loss and improved blood sugar levels than Saxenda, with fewer side effects.
Due to the shortage of semaglutide (Ozempic) in the UK, we aren’t accepting new prescriptions for our medication-supported programme.

Can Saxenda be prescribed online?
Saxenda can be prescribed online if the provider is approved and registered, and you complete their online prescription application.
But, you need to meet specific requirements such as having a BMI of over 30 or over 27 with a chronic condition like type 2 diabetes or heart disease.
Is it safe to order Saxenda online?
All online prescribers have to follow strict regulations in the UK to provide medications for delivery.
All pharmacies in Great Britain, including those providing internet services, must be registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) and meet their standards for registered pharmacies.
Prescribers may partner with providers like Second Nature to distribute their products. All partners must follow strict regulations and have sufficient insurance coverage to advertise and sell medication.
However, illegal websites do operate beyond these regulations; here are some tips to ensure you’re buying prescription medicines from reliable sources:
- If you’re purchasing your medication through a prescriber’s partner, like Second Nature, make sure the prescribing pharmacies information is provided
- Be wary of online pharmacies that offer prescription drugs without a prescription or at a significantly lower price than other pharmacies
- Check if the online pharmacy is licensed and located in the United Kingdom
- Make sure that the online pharmacy has a licensed pharmacist available to answer your questions
Should I buy Saxenda?
Deciding to start a new medication is a highly personal choice. So, ultimately, it depends on whether you believe it’s the best decision for your health going forward.
However, Saxenda isn’t as effective as other GLP-1 medications, like Wegovy. Wegovy can lead to significant weight loss and health improvements like lower blood pressure and blood sugar levels, with fewer side effects.
However, all medications come with risks and rewards, and not everyone is suitable for Wegovy, and Saxenda might be a better option. We’d recommend speaking with your doctor or local pharmacist for some advice.
Why choose Second Nature?
If you’ve made the decision to try a semaglutide prescription (assuming you’re eligible), why should you choose Second Nature’s medication-supported programme over others?
For peace of mind.
Second Nature is the only UK company that provides private weight-loss injections and is also trusted by the NHS to provide weight-loss services.
The NHS has used Second Nature for over 6 years, and we ensure we abide by the highest levels of data security and patient safety.
With that, we believe there comes a level of authenticity and peace of mind that other providers cannot match (e.g. Boots, Superdrug, Juniper, Numan, Manual, etc.).
If you want to go with a company with a proven track record of providing the most effective digital weight-loss programme to the NHS (as proven in our official scientific publications in the British Medical Journal, and others), then give us a go.
