| 1 | Diabetes T2 and weight management | Cramping, diarrhea, vomiting, fatigue, | Will never take it again. Switched to Januvia | F | 55 | 6 weeks 1X W | 7/24/2022 | 5 | To lose this god awful weight! | Nausea only the day after, and it came and went quickly. | I have been on Ozempic now for 5 weeks. I started at the .25mg and after two weeks, upped it to the .5mg. I have never felt so dang good! I'm 53, post-meno, non-diabetic, 5'4", and SW was 264. My current weight, after just one month was 19lbs! Now I'm down 21lbs! I'd love to finally be 165lbs or so again. I haven't been that small since I was about 11 years old. Ozempic has saved me! I can't believe it. I actually look forward to the injection ever week. I only had nausea for a little bit the day after I started. And since, then, it's been great! No diarrhea, no nausea, just boundless energy. And not just that, but it's done something to my brain! I have this amazing sense of optimism, and positivity. I feel hopeful again! I feel like I AM going to finally lose this miserable weight. I don't have much hunger. This stuff makes me NOT want junk food! It's a damn miracle, I tell you! I WANT to eat healthy stuff now. How did this happen?! LOL! I crave lettuce and raw broccoli, and carrots, and good steak. I hardly eat any breads or biscuits, haven't had any cookies or cake. I did have one small tiny little container of Blue Bunny vanilla ice cream. The kind in the little 1/4 cup containers that you buy. I think they come 10 to a pack? Five vanilla, five chocolate... And I'm also snacking on healthy nuts. Walnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds and pistachios. I am so happy!! Let the weight loss continue! The struggle before was real. | F | 53 | 6 weeks .5mg 1X W | 7/23/2022 | 1 | Pre-diabetic / weight loss | Nausea, burping foul smelling undigested food, vomiting undigested food that is days old, then diarrhea, no energy, feel absolutely terrible | Will not continue to take this. | F | 55 | 6 months 1mg 1X W | 7/22/2022 | 2 | Weight loss | I have been nauseous every single day, not enough to actually throw up but enough to feel awful. I have had diarrhea and upset stomach several times a week and I keep getting awful tension headaches for some reason that I was not having before. | It's not worth the discomfort to me, can't wait to get this medication out of my system and feel normal again and not sick all the time. | F | 33 | 3 weeks 0.5 1X W | 7/15/2022 | 1 | Weight loss | More of a reaction that slowly came on getting worse each week. Scratchy throat end of first week. Sore throat second week and the end of the third week hard a hard time swallowing food | F | 51 | 21 days .5 1X day | 7/14/2022 | 4 | Diabetes | Lowered my sugars. Morning reading 100 to 160 ish. But one or two days aweek. Exhausted. Cannot stay awake. I noticed food smells or making me sick. Diarrhea not too bad | F | 54 | 2 months .50 1X W | 7/9/2022 | 4 | Control my sugar | Trembling hands | Otherwise a great medication | M | 63 | 5 days .25 1X W | 7/2/2022 | 1 | Diabetes | Terrible feeling tired all the time very sick and nauseous and vomiting with the sour belching, constipation terrible. I can not recommend this medication to anyone it's awful | Do not take unless you want to be sick all the time | F | 52 | 8 weeks 1X W | 7/2/2022 | 3 | Type 2 | Only on day 5 but blood sugar has declined. I wasn't a OUT OF CONTROL diabetic, but my highs were 210-220, lows 140. Glyburide was no longer effective and Ozempic was docs recomendation . day 5 and my highs, with metformin, are 120. Now the downside. Nausea like i have a stomach bug. VIOLENT bowl vacuations...and hiccups. I mean hiccups the likes I've never heard of. 1-2 hours at a time, up to 4-5 hours at a time. It's insane. I assume the medication is causing an irritation of the vagus nerve. So, on the blood sugar side, great already, on the side effect side...bleh. I have Odansetron now and will see if that helps wit hthe nausea, bt no idea about the hiccups | M | 55 | 4 days 2mg 1X W | 7/1/2022 | 1 | Borderline diabetes and weight loss | Throwing up, fast heart rate, burping, food does not digest at all. Nauseated. Miserable, will never take again. | F | 51 | 1 days 1mg 1X W | 6/27/2022 | 5 | Pre-diabetic....over weight | 2.5 weeks of crampy stomach when dosage was increased .....but after this period no side effects other than food tastes different and I'm full with very little food at 1 time ..... | Love love this drug ....I have lost 30 lbs in 5 months and I'm hoping to keep on losing | F | 5 months 1 mg 1X W | 6/22/2022 | 3 | Diabetes and weight loss | Nasua, vomiting, no appetite, brain fog. | This medicine helped me lose 40 lbs and my a1C was 5.9. But the more weight I lost the sicker I became. Gastroenterologist diagnosed me with gastoparisis. I was weak and sick all the time. I thought the brain fog was from depression, so I kept trying different psych meds. Finally I decided to take half my dose, and after about two weeks I started feeling a little better. Doc said my numbers were good enough I could stop taking it. My blood sugars went back to pre diabetic ranges and I put on 15 pounds In two weeks. Honestly considered taking meds to treat the gastoparisis and giving it another shot, but the brain fog is affecting my ability to work so I'm trying other medications. Side note, Victoza and Trulicity also made me foggy, hence why I didn't connect it to the ozempic. Was trying to many new meds at once. | F | 34 | 2 years 1 mg 1X W | 6/20/2022 | 1 | Lower A1C, weight loss | Severe nausea, diarrhea, bedridden for 3 or 4 days. The sulphuric burps are awful. food just rotting in the stomach not digesting. | F | 64 | 8 months .5 1X day | 6/11/2022 | 1 | Type 2 Diabetes and weight loss | Fatigue, cant keep anything down, constant vomiting and burping. Im miserable. | F | 56 | 2 days 1mg 1X day | 5/25/2022 | 5 | Diabetes management | Drastically lowered my BS, mornings 90-100 night 110 and under. Full quickly, nauseas, burps, diarrhea. Nothing that's not tolerable. Lost 8lbs so far, 10lbs to goal! Very happy with this medication! | Anyone struggling with BS management should try Ozempic | F | 48 | 1 months .5 1X W | 5/23/2022 | 3 | Diabetes type II | Belching, gas pain, loss of appetite, heartburn, nausea. | Started at .25 for the first week and now on .50 for the third week and symptoms are not as intense before. Hoping that my system will get used to the medicine and lessen the severity of symptoms. A1C was high at 9.2 before starting this medication but will see next week if it is beginning to work. | F | 45 | 4 weeks .5 1X W | 5/20/2022 | 1 | Type 2 diabetes and weight loss | Severe bloating along with painful gas and almost continuous burping of rotten egg taste. Nauseated feeling with very little energy daily. | F | 50 | 2 months 1 mg 1X W | 5/16/2022 | 1 | Lower blood sugar and weight loss. | Explosive diarrhea, horrible gas pains, nausea and burps that either smell like waste or sulphur. End up very dehydrated, weak shaky and exhausted. I cannot leave the house when diarrhea flares up for 1 or 2 days approximately twice a week. I never know when it's going to start. Have had numerous accidents in bed and in my clothes. | F | 60 | 4 months 1mg 1X W | 5/16/2022 | 4 | Weight loss pre diabetes | I am so incredibly tired. I hit a wall around noon and around 3-5 pm. Every day. I just took my second injection of 0.25. I've lost a few pounds | F | 60 | 8 days 0.25 1X W | 5/14/2022 | 4 | Weight loss | Extra fatigue, slight abdominal pain at times. Only just went up to the .5mg for my second week and had lots of gurgling in my tummy, making me gassy. I dont have constant cravings anymore, especially for sugar, which is great. | I'm classified as obese, I have PCOS, chronic fatigue and no gallbladder. Duromine didnt work for me. Currently lost 5kg in my 6th week. I've had 2 doses at the .5mg and the gurgling goes on all week. There are shortages now as a lot are using for weightloss, I was under direction by my endocrinologist. I've had to purchase the first box again at half dose as it's the only one I've found. I find I have more success when I have something really small for morning and afternoon tea, even if its a tiny piece of choc to ensure I don't try and binge eat later. I'm trying to do 30mins exercise, even if its just walking, at least 3-4 times a week. Key thing, my endo said don't eat if you aren't hungry. Don't assume you will lose weight if you don't put I'm the effort, it doesn't shred fat. | F | 37 | 6 weeks 1X W | 5/11/2022 |
