OZEMPIC  (SEMAGLUTIDE):  Semaglutide is used with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Semaglutide is similar to a natural hormone in your body (incretin). It works by causing insulin release in response to high blood sugar (such as after a meal) and decreasing the amount of sugar your liver makes. If you use insulin, semaglutide is not a substitute for insulin treatment.   FDA Approval Date: 2017-12-05 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  T2D and Weight Loss I had minor GI effects from Ozempic which were manageable. However, within a week after increasing from the .25 to the .5 weekly dose, I felt overwhelming fatigue and weakness. I am usually fairly active and it got to the point that climbing a flight of stairs was too much for me. And my favorite gardening was totally out of the question. I Would get so out of breath that it was alarming. The fatigue and weakness continued with each dose. It was impossible to live like that. My legs felt like lead and I had no stamina for any activity, Things seem to be getting better now that I stopped taking Ozempic. It's been two weeks and the progress is slow. I still can't walk up steps without stopping to catch my breath. Some days are better though. I am waiting for the 5 weeks off of Ozempic mark. If I am not totally better I am requesting that my doctor do a more thorough work up. I'm hopeful though that I Will be back to my once active self. In three months I've lost maybe 5 lb F 59 3 months

 5  Weight loss I started ozempic a month ago for weight loss only. I am not diabetic. I had very mild nausea the first week and no problems since then. I have lost 10 pounds. I am not at all hungry between meals but still have good appetite at meal time. I am VERY happy with this medication. I will be on .5 for another month and then increase to 1.0. I dont intend to increase to the 2.4 wegovny dose because my insurance wont cover it. But hopefully I will continue to have success at 1.0. I recommend this medication. F 67 30 days

 4  Pre diabetic..weight loss I have a terrible time losing weight and I have lost 12 lbs in 2 months….I do have bouts of nausea- it helps to eat something salty; I have had some diarrhea, but it really controls the cravings and the amount of food I eat. Fried and rich food does make me sick. It's a tool that forces you to eat well - bc of the consequences. It has changed the way I think about food . I feel like it has given me the ability to eat to live not live to eat. I think if you can tolerateThis drug and it gives you results of weight loss and lower A-1 C then you should definitely go for it. F 66 2 months

 1  Diabetes and weight loss I took the med for 6 weeks, the symptoms got worse each time. Vomiting at least once or twice a day. Diarrhea all the time. Started in with bad stomach cramps, couldn't look at food without being sick. And bad heartburn. I would not recommend it, it dehydrates you, I couldn't even drink my water or sodas, it would make me throw up, and I was hungry, but I could not eat. F 0 weeks

 5  Type 2, lower insulin amts Some burping, some constipation, some diarrhea. Very nauseous on some days. Lost about 10 lbs so far. Have noticed meds effect seem to last about 4 days. Ready to increase amt. This Rx has stopped my mindless eating. Food does not look very appealing to me...I now want green veggies and fruit. i have been able to cut my short term insulin in half, and my long term insulin by 1/4. I also take metformin and am hoping to maybe stop taking some meds. I haven't had the severe stomach cramps and wonder if the prilosec i take has helped. F 64 26 days

 5  Weight loss Nausea, constipation, sulfur burps, indigestion, acid reflux, bloating and fatigue. Have had several friends lose a ton of weight quickly on ozempic and I myself am FINALLY starting to lose the 160lbs I'd gained due to being on psych meds (Paxil). I have tried literally everything over the last few years to lose the weight and even keto didn't work. Ozempic has weight melting off, while I'm still taking my SSRI meds!!! I will deal with the nausea for that lol, of course this is just me and everyone reacts differently and some can't tolerate unfortunately. — F 35 20 days
