Why this petition matters

Started by Sarah Bryant

Saxenda has been approved on the NHS England & NHS Scotland. 

Unfortunately it is not available on NHS Northern Ireland. 

Liraglutide (also called Saxenda) is a weight loss medicine that works by making you feel fuller and less hungry. It's taken as an injection once a day.

As Saxenda is not available on NHS N.I private companies that sell these injections are selling them at an extortionate cost. 

A month supply works out around £250 depending on company. 

Please help by signing the petition to help & pass it on to Robin Swann ( N.I Health Minister) 

 

Thank you.
