"i was given a sample pen of saxenda and was told by my dr that he would give me samples if my insurance wouldn&#039;t cover it. so i started on it and had great results with no side affects at all until week 3 when i upped the dosage to 1.8 mg. a little queasy, but i could handle it. lost 5 pounds in 2 weeks. never hungry. then my insurance approved it, but my co-pay was $580 a month. the savings card only covers $200 so i would still have to pay $380, which is way out of my price range. oh yeah, the dr backed out on samples.

i really wish the manufacturer would price the drug more reasonably. seriously...why create this miracle drug if you have no intention of making it available to the people that need it?"
