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)

 4  Weight loss - 32 BMI Nausea and cramps start 2 days after injection and last about 2 days. Constipation has been a problem. Four weeks at .25 started feeling great week four then went to .5. Vomited the day after injection (1x). Really bad cramps and nausea 3 days. I have lost 10 pounds. My appetite has decreased and cravings for sweets have gone away. I am cutting back per the doctor from .5 to .25 and 4 clicks. Then I will go back to .5 when I adjust. F 58 5 weeks

 5  Type 2 Don't have any side effects in the beginning but 10 months in am experiencing some diarrhoea now, which does worry me slightly as I don't want to stop as its made a massive difference to my levels. I don't have any other side effects at all. Lost 2 stone as well so very happy with that even though I'm not taking it initially for weight loss. F 52 10 months

 4  Weight loss I started taking Ozempic 3 weeks ago for weight loss. I started on .25 for the first 2 weeks I had slight side effects fatigue and a little bit of nausea nothing bad at all I was so scared reading everyones review's. I raised my dose to .5 because I had really no big side side effects. The only side effect on .5 is the tiredness a little nausea my appetite is definitely starting to slow down Im hoping to lose 25 lbs we will see. F 54 3 weeks

 5  Weight loss Nausea, Acid reflux, Headaches, Stomach ache, Constipation, Back pain, Cold - All mostly during titration period. I have been on Ozempic for just over 3 months now. I started on 0.25mg once weekly and have now titrated up to 2.0mg once weekly. Side effects were all there but I expected them after reading about it. Dr prescribed me anti-sickness tablets, Lansoprazole for acid reflux and Fibre satchets for constipation. Side effects wore off after the 2nd week of the same dose until going up doseage, then they would come back but each time a bit better. I am now in month 3 and no longer have to use the anti-sickness meds. I do take Lansoprazole daily as sometimes acid reflux/heartburn can creep up unexpectedly if I don't. I have lost 2 stone since starting Ozempic, which for me is a miracle. I spent years yoyo dieting and working out to very little weight loss leading to binge-eating. Ozempic stops me from craving food, it stops me from being obsessed with it. I can actually eat a small portion of food and feel full. I no longer have the feeling to overeat, it doesn't interest me anymore. I feel amazing, I've lost my double chin and although I still have a couple of stone to go, I am a different person. Yes, the side effects in the beginning are tough, but you can pull through it if you have faith in yourself and stock up on the correct medication to help ease them. They don't last forever, they get easier with each injection. I eat whatever I like. I just can't eat the amount in one go that I used to. Ozempic has given me my life back, and I'm so grateful.

 1  Type 2 diabetes & weight loss Nausea, diarrhoea, stomach pain, headache, lethargy, I was persuaded to try this by the doctor but it was so debilitating that I could not function. I could not take my daughter to her lessons because I could not drive. Stomach pains were so intense and feeling bloated meant that I did not eat. This resulted in temperature loss and consequently returning to bed. I need to function, to drive the child to her lessons (35 miles away) and my wife to hospital (also 35 miles away), to work (I do not get sick pay) and to run a busy household. so I have decided not to continue with it. There are less devastating ways to loose weight than this, i.e. the Newcastle Diet (or variations there of). M 62 1 weeks

 5  Diabetic None My only bitch is that millions are on this drug. So why is it so expensive. People have to make a choice between food or medicine. The company should be ashamed of there prices. These companies are posting big profits at the expense of diabetics. ~$1000.00 per month. Cut the CEO salary he is definitely over paid. Why do they have to screw the diabetics. We are on it for life. M 64 2 days

 1  Type 2 diabetes Unbelievable intermittent diarrhea, and when I didn't have that I had low grade migraines. Pharmacist is taking me off this and talking to endocrinologist about a better option. I wasn't able to move up to a full dose because of side effects. I lost 12 pounds but mostly because I was nauseous for the first few days after each shot as well. F 52 6 weeks

 1  Type 2 Diabetes, Weight Loss My experience with Ozempic is that it delays my stomach emptying so much, I wake up choking on regurgitated food. I do have a hiatal hernia, but my symptoms were well controlled through PPI until I started this medication. Also, only 3 lbs lost after 8 months of misery. My symptoms have been as follows: the WORST acid reflux of my entire life, regurgitation of food, egg burps, nausea, menthol feeling in throat and chest, diarrhea and fatigue. I’m finally reclaiming my life from this terrible medicine. I stopped taking it one week ago. Lowering a1c is not worth spending your life miserable F 45 8 months

 1  Type 2 diabetes I'm so nauseous I can't even work I had to go home sick twice. I can't drink water because it makes me sick to my stomach. I have lost weight but I can't function like this. I have tried nausea medication and it's not working I need the help but I'm to sick to get through the day. I have to work so I don't feel there's any other choice for me plus my quality of life has to be better than this. I spend most of my day in bed because of the nauseousness. I can't do anything.

 5  Diabetes type 2, weight loss Some gas, a little nausea, feeling full after not eating much. So far this seems like it will be a great drug for me. Hardly and side effects and it curbs my appetite so I can make healthier choices. I am using ozempic with diet and exercise and hope to lose some weight in the coming months. I will update if anything changes but so far it has been absolutely fine. F 38 4 days
