 1  Diabetes This drug was like poison to me! Almost immediately after injection it made my mouth taste like pure acetone! It tastes and smelled like someone had poured a gallon of nail polish remover down my throat! Then came violent attacks of projectile vomiting and diarrhea.... I got dehydrated, dizzy, stomach pains, belching, but the acetone smell and taste was the worse! I've had 7 surgeries but this has been the worse medical experience ever! If I had continued I'd be dead! Warning! Beware of this poison! F 49 2 days

 1  Type 2 Severe vision loss, I had to stop taking drug because my vision got worse and I am still having problems with my vision after discontinuing drug after 2 weeks. Myo Dr is unsure if my normal vision will return. I am really upset. I had to stop taking this drug bc I noticed after taking it that my vision was heavily impaired, severe headaches and dizziness. Here it is 5 weeks Later and my vision is still impaired. My blood sugar levels are low now thanks to changing my diet. Please be careful if you take this drug. Listen to your body. I just didn't feel right while I was on it and you have to listen to your body and pay attention because side effects of this drug may not be reversible. My daughter typed this for me. I just want people to know. Please be very careful. F 53 2 weeks

 1  Type 2 diabetes Dizziness, fast heartbeat, extreme nausea, extreme diarrhea,fatigue. I understand medicines may have some side effects but why should a medicine that is suppose to help you make you feel so much worse after you take it? This is definately an experimental drug I would rather take my chances dealing with the diabetes symptoms. F 42 2 days

 2  A1C BLOATED stomach long after meals, mild nausea, some diarrhea. Worst part is sometimes I'm still tasting last nights dinner, next morning or sometimes smell rotting food on my breath. I think both of these side effects are due to slow gastric emptying? This happens regardless of quantity or type of food eaten or when during the day I've eaten. It takes forever for food to pass through my system when taking Victoza. Starting to really gross me out to think about how long undigested foods sits in my system. If I stop using Victoza for 2 weeks, these symptoms cease. Help to improve your product F 52 1 years

 1  Weight loss and diabetic Horrible lower abdomen pain which did not last long. Terrible nausea which was constant. I had to force myself to eat. If I ate 700 calories, I'd be surprised and I actually gained weight. Blurry vision. I stopped taking the medication and I still have the vision problem, but thank goodness the nausea is gone.

 4  Control blood sugars Stomach cramps. SnD. sore throat.loss of appetite. Sulphur burps.headaches.dizziness heart burn I started on 0.6units for a week. Which the side effects were bad. Not goin to lie. I'm now on 1.6 units. Still have the sulphur burps, heart burn and loss of some appetite but slowly it's coming back. For 20 years I've had my sugars running in the 20's and been on every insulin type you can think of and nothing controlled them. This has reduced and controlled my sugars unbelievably. I'd say it's hard at the begging but we'll worth sticking to. I've lost 5lb in the two weeks. My next goal now is to have a baby with my husband. Hand on heart the side effects will start to go just persivere. Very happy at the min F 29 2 weeks

 5  Type 2 diabetic / weight loss Mild nausea, complete loss of appetite, sweating occasionally, indigestion, diarrhea a couple of times. I've just increased to the 1.8 dose as this is the beginning of my 3rd week. I'm convinced the benefits outweigh the side effects. I've already lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks. As long as I make sure to eat breakfast (protein) and lunch (veggies and protein) and snack on fruit and nuts even when I don't want to, I'm fine. Dinner is almost nothing but I still try to get in some protein and veggies. The only time I got indigestion was when I ate at 7:00 pm and mashed potatoes were involved. I think this stuff is exactly what I've needed!!! F 46 2 weeks
