Saxenda &

Evita Clinic provides two FDA-approved weight loss injection pens – Saxenda and  – that can help you achieve your weight goals safely and effectively under medical supervision.

Saxenda (liraglutide) and  (semaglutide) are both GLP-1 receptor agonists.
They help reduce appetite and calorie intake by acting on the brain’s appetite control center.

Why Choose a Weight Loss Pen?

There are countless diet products out there: pills, teas, and trends. But Saxenda and  are backed by science, proven in clinical studies, and approved by major health authorities like the FDA.
