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  Weight loss The side effects were bad! I had to stop after 2 doses. Daily nausea, headaches, dizziness , eye pain. Overall I felt awful. After stopping it one week ago I still have the side effects. I've had to put a lot of things on hold because I have to sit or lie down a lot. For me , this is a nightmare. I've used other diets with and with out meds but this has been the worst. I am not a quitter and didn't want to but I feel awful. Not sure how long it takes for side effects to go away. F 70 4 weeks

 2  Weightloss Once I moved up to .5 after 3 weeks I ended up getting extremely bad sulphur burps where it smelt like a rotten egg/dogs ass. I would get plugged up for a day and a half and then id throw up and have diarrea and ended up at emergency. This happened 3 different times tryingf to figure out what caused it as my Dr or ER Dr had no idea it was a side effect with some people. Very disappointed as it does work for weightloss if you can bare it and done get the bad side effects F 45 2 months

 4  Type 2 Diabetes I started on .025 for 5 weeks, then .50 for 5 more weeks. I have been taking 1 mg for 2 weeks now. I have lost my appetite and can only eat anywhere from a couple bites to 1/2 the amount of food I used to. I have gas and bloating, occasional nausea and frequent diarrhea. Pain comes on the left side of stomach and I have Lots of belching. not quite feeling myself. I do have a lot of fatigue. In 12 weeks I have lost 1 pound. My blood sugars have stabilized quite a bit. As far as lowering blood sugar, it does it's job but the side effects can be too much. One should weigh the pros and cons and if it disrupts your lifestyle or not before choosing this medicine F 58 12 weeks

 1  Diabetes and weight loss Terrible nausea and vomiting started the next day after starting this medication. I lived on crackers and water with occasional jello and chicken noodle soup. My nausea was so bad that I had to basically stay still or I would vomit. Forget about being active. I was so weak and tired from no food and very little water. I only made it for 3 weeks before I had to stop taking ozempic. The thought of living like that was a no go for me. I went back on the Trulicity I was on and I feel much better. My doctor wants to try another medication but I am not so sure I want to do that. F 65 3 weeks

 1  Diabetes/Weight Loss Extremely explosive diarrhea, stomach cramping and rolling noises, bad stomach pain, acid reflux (even with prescription nexium, and the disgusting burps. Tired, been dehydrated a couple of times, haven't vomited but definitely could at times if I wanted too (hate vomiting), eating barely anything in fear of more stomach junk and quickly full It started out great, I took the 0.25 for 4 weeks with no side effects. Went to 0.5, still just fine for another 4 weeks…then I went to 1 mg, that's when it all started! My stomach cramps, exploding diarrhea, rolling stomach pain..it hurts so bad, cramping, more explosive diarrhea, extreme gas, disgusting burps, did I mention back to back exploding diarrhea? Messaged my doctor today and I'll be going back to the 0.5, that's apparently where my body is fine with it. I have lost 40 pounds which is quite significant, but that'll happen when you barely eat and then it comes right back out. I'll go back to 0.5, but it'll take some serious pain before the full dose of hell is out of my body. My recommendation, find your sweet spot and stay there, unless your body fully rejects it M 38 3 months

 1  Diabetic Ozempic made me very sick after three weeks of taking it. First I thought I had the Flu. I had stomach pains, I started to throwing up and diarrhea it took three and half days to get out of my system. This is unbelievable any medication can make you this sick, they say only a small percentage get sick . In my opinion medicine that makes you want to died is not worth trying. M 71 21 days

 1  Type 2DM Weakness/fatigue , sulfur burps, no appetite, dizziness, stomach pain. I really thought I would be able to get use to this med. it has worked wonders for my fasting sugars. My A1c has come down from 14+ to 7.9 great results. For those who are just taking it for weight loss and not for diabetes shame on you and your doctor. People who need this med can't get it because of shortages of weight loss people usage. I've lost 250 lbs on my own over 15 years. Hard work I know but it can be done. F 59 3 months

 1  Weightloss Nausea,severe vomiting, constipation, food revulsion, extreme fatigue, hard to think clearly. Basically stomach flu injection. Who doesn't lose weight with the stomach flu. So I lost weight, yes, but for me these injections were basically self harming. I can no longer take something that I know will make me miserably sick. Eating too few calories so I'm hoping I didn't mess up my metabolism/calorie burning. F 59 4 months

 5  Weight loss and prediabetic Mild heartburn daily, a bit more sleepy some days Have lost 23 lbs in nearly 4 months. I do not have food aversions so eat smaller portions of what I want. Avoiding deep fried foods, just in case, and trying to eat healthier. Take fiber and if constipated two days, take something more like laxative, do not wait. Always start at .25 and do not rush dose increases. I love it but I am lucky to not have bad side effects. Joined the Ozempic/Wegovy Facebook group which is supportive. F 61 4 months

 5  Weight Loss Temporarily affected food taste, temporary mild diarrhea, temporary constipation, slow digestion, flatulence, acid reflux, burping. Started at .25 mg for first month, increased to .5 mg for second month, now at 1 mg for past four months. Mild side effects at beginning, but disappeared after first couple of weeks. Many people believe they can continue with old diet, but changes need to be made. I’ve lost cravings for sugar, salt, and carbohydrates. Focus now tends to be on protein and vegetables in small servings. Flatulence and burping has increased over last month or so, probably due to slowed digestion. Went from over 300 lbs to 250. Blood pressure improved, becoming more energetic and active. M 48 7 months
