Thank you for the information! I'm starting today but the one side effect that freaks me out a little bit is the increased thyroid tumors and cancer, but I guess that's the risk with any medicine!

I inject in my abdomen, and have been since I started. That’s what works for me. When the full dose is reached, one pen lasts for 6 days. The pen obviously lasts longer while on the lower doses. You use the same pen daily until all of the medication is dispensed.
Thank you for your response.. I'm starting mine on Wednesday and I'm ready for this new weight loss journey. I'm learning new things and getting prepared

How many weeks does the first pen last? Thanks for your all your info on saxenda.
Approx 17 days for the first pen.
So I’m confused, is that 17 weeks?

So wish area is best for injection. The stomach or arm? And also how long will one pen go? I thought maybe you use different pens daily.
