Can I stop Saxenda anytime?

Technically, yes. But that will also depend on how your body responds to the medication. Because Saxenda is not addictive, many people are able to stop taking the medication without experiencing withdrawal or any serious issues. However, since Saxenda does affect your digestive system, it is recommended that you gradually reduce your dosage and taper off the medication so your body can adjust to the change. In some patients, the sudden discontinuation of Saxenda treatment may lead to feelings of nausea.
