Saxenda is a once-daily injectable medication used to support weight loss in adults struggling with obesity or excess weight. While not as well-known as Ozempic or Wegovy, Saxenda has been available for longer and remains a trusted option — especially for people who prefer a daily routine or cannot tolerate semaglutide-based medications.
This guide will walk you through how to access Saxenda in Thailand, how much it costs, and how it compares to alternatives like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro.
Please note that the prices provided are estimations and may vary based on various factors. Additionally, these prices do not include flights or accommodation.
All prices are in USD.
Saxenda (liraglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that works by mimicking a hormone that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. It’s manufactured by Novo Nordisk — the same company behind Ozempic and Wegovy — and is approved specifically for weight loss, not diabetes.
Unlike Ozempic and Wegovy, Saxenda must be injected daily using a pre-filled pen that allows you to adjust the dose. Treatment typically begins at a low dose (0.6 mg) and increases gradually up to 3.0 mg daily.
Availability of Saxenda in Thailand
Saxenda is widely available across Thailand and can be found in many major hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies in cities like Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, and Pattaya. It’s generally easier to find than Wegovy or Mounjaro, making it a more accessible option for those beginning their weight loss journey.
You don’t always need a prescription to buy Saxenda in Thailand, but due to the daily dosing schedule and potential side effects, it's highly recommended to start under medical supervision. Most hospitals will require a consultation before dispensing Saxenda, especially for new patients.
All three medications belong to the GLP-1 family and help with weight loss, but there are some key differences:
Saxenda may also be preferred if Mounjaro is unavailable, or if a doctor feels liraglutide is more appropriate based on your health profile.
If Saxenda isn’t right for you or is out of stock, here are several alternatives available locally:
Saxenda is usually sold in packs containing 5 pens, each lasting about 6 days once on the full 3.0 mg daily dose (around one month total per pack). Pricing can vary depending on where you purchase it.
In Thailand, Saxenda typically costs between ฿10,000 and ฿13,000 ($280–$370 USD) for a one-month supply. It’s cheaper than in most Western countries, where it may cost over $1,000/month.

In many cases, no. Saxenda can often be purchased without a prescription at private pharmacies in Thailand. However, it’s advised to have a local consultation to ensure the medication is suitable and to receive guidance on starting doses.

We are clients from Australia and we could not recommend Konkai health anymore!
We are so pleased with the level of service from Pam in helping us organise a surgery for my husband which took place in Thailand.
We had to change a few appointments here and there (life happened on our end) and Pam was all too willing to help with no problems.
Pam helped me find both a doctor and a surgical team for my heart surgery during a time when I was struggling to get any responses from the hospitals I contacted directly. She located everything I needed and was invaluable in overcoming language barriers. I highly recommend her assistance!
I am extremely happy with the service provided by this page. It made it so easy for me to find and appoint doctors for my children and wife. The process was smooth, fast, and hassle-free. The interface was user-friendly, and I felt assured knowing I could get the best care for my family quickly. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a reliable way to book medical appointments. Thank you!
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
I made the decision to undergo cosmetic surgery in Bangkok, Thailand due to the high prices in Australia, Unsure about choosing the right hospital and doctors in Thailand, my friend suggested Konkai Medical Tourism Agency, they guided me through everything and their professional team, with strong medical connections in Thailand, made the process smooth.
The surgery went well, and I’m very happy with the results.
I highly recommend Konkai to anyone considering to come to Thailand for medical treatment 👍
"Konkai helped me with what was becoming a confusing process. After contacting Konkai they quickly found a doctor that specialized in the procedure I requested and helped set up an appointment during my trip to Thailand. I will definitely contact them again if the need arises."
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
"The customer care at Konkai Health has been great. I was looking at treatment options for my back. They got back to me fast and gave me options to connect with some top doctors and surgeons in Thailand. The doctors assessed my condition, did a video call, and gave me recommendations to fix it. Thank you. I recommend them for anyone interested in medical tourism to Thailand."
"I will say you made it so easy to get everything scheduled. I expected it to take much longer trying to find doctors waiting on responses etc. I was happy with the doctor just going ahead and getting it done on the same day as the first procedure. Everything went well and all the nurses were great. Thanks!"
"Konkai Health's service has truly been outstanding. From providing directions to the hospital, hotel recommendations in there, or simply checking up on how everything has gone. I fully recommend them to anyone wanting to see a doctor in Thailand."
I would like to share my very good experience with konkai.health as I was searching for a clinic for my cataract surgery. Khun Pam Van Wissen organised me in no time all appointments at Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok which has distinguished itself through excellent service. I would like to say thank you to all staff, nurses and especially to Dr. Keerati Pungpapong who all did an absolutely excellent job and I felt from the first moment in best hands. Thank you again Khun Pam from Konkai Health for a great job.
I am very happy with the results. I cannot thank the people at Asia Cosmetic Hospital enough for their help and service while I was in the hospital and my stay at the hotel. I feel fine with very little if any pain and I am bringing my strength back up to before surgery. I know it will take many months for everything to heal but right now I feel strong both physical and mentally.
Thank you Konkai for all the work on your part to bring this all together for me. You don’t know what this means to me.
"Everything went really well the staff were kind and helpful my experience there was very good experience"
