I have been on Ozempic for 6 years in June. I use it for T2D, not weight control.

It has been great at keeping my blood sugar in check. I have zero side effects while on Ozempic. I had terrible side effects while on Metformin for my T2D. That's why my doctor started the process of testing other T2D drugs.

The Ozempic for weight loss craziness is new, not the drug.

My friend just started taking it. I don't recall her mentioning pre-diabetes and she likes to party and drink a lot so I assume not.

Dumb Questions -- Is this prescribed now just for weight loss and is it common for doctors to prescribe it for any patient (even those who haven't tried lifestyle changes and exercise)?

Nausea and tiredness for me.

That said, my symptoms have been reflux, nausea, and losing 20 lbs in three months.

I’ve followed these just since I’m on it to stay informed, and as far as I can tell people are ignoring pretty dire symptoms. I mean, I get that you can have occasional side effects and stay on it but if it’s clearly messing up your digestion you need to stop taking it!

I had all the side effects! Any unpleasant gastrointestinal symptom you can think of, I had it.

Now a year in and 50lbs down, I can’t even feel it.

Nausea, constipation, tiredness. Basically I felt like my first trimester. That lasted about 6month and then it all just sort of faded away. I’ve been on it for 2 yrs now and no more side effects.

Nothing.

10 years when you see a goofy attorney TV ad with a toll free number to call if you got cancer, etc from Ozempic use. Pharma companies
are insane...all about making a quick $$ NOW and what comes later becomes a problems for all others.

No side effects here, just weight loss 🙂

No one knows. It’s experimental.

Mostly just manageable acid reflux for a few days after injecting.

What are folks experiencing?
