"i started saxenda 4 days ago.  on the first day, i developed significant nausea and thought that there was no way that i could continue with it, especially given that i am currently only starting with the lowest dose.  then, i thought about trying gravol but did not like the idea of having to take another drug several times a day along with the saxenda.  so i went to walmart and purchased some ginger capsules (sold beside the regular gravol).  what a huge difference taking ginger everyday has made!  i take one ginger capsule with every meal and then again at bedtime.  the ginger has completely taken  away my nausea!  now i am confident that i will be able to continue with the saxenda.  so far, my appetite is way down!!"
