How much does saxenda cost in the uk?

Prices for Saxenda in the UK vary a lot depending on whether you’re buying privately or getting it on the NHS. Here’s the gist:

- Private purchase (from a pharmacy): about £230–£260 per 3 mL Saxenda pen. One pen is typically used for roughly one month at the usual obesity dosing, but the exact amount you need depends on your daily dose. Prices can vary by pharmacy and region.

- NHS (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland): Saxenda is not routinely funded for obesity. If a clinician can prescribe it under exceptional/specific circumstances, you’d pay the standard NHS prescription charge (England) of £9.65 per item unless you’re exempt. Scotland/Wales/Northern Ireland have different exemptions/charges, and some patients may have no charge there.

If you’d like, tell me which part of the UK you’re in (England, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland) and whether you’re looking for NHS vs private pricing. I can tailor the estimate to your situation.
