Ozempic Side Effects
UpdatedHello. I just recently started ozempic I'm type 2 diabetic and am overweight I've worked up to the .5 dose 2 more weeks I'll be on 1.0 is there anyone out there with any experience with this drug? At first I thought I was allergic as I broke out in a rash I thought was poison sumac, but not so sure now. And my bathroom habits have seriously changed from once every morning to several times a day. Any input would be greatly appreciated

Hello, James! How are you doing?
Ozempic contains the active ingredient Semaglutide, it used to treat type 2 diabetes. Its typical side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, as well as the risk of some serious possible side effects, like pancreatic inflammation, and kidney problems, though they are very rare.
The medication information does state that you should have the rash checked out by your doctor, as it could be the sign of an allergic reaction.
Has there been any change?
I am in my 8th week of Ozempic for weight loss and from week two I have felt sick. Symptoms include: headache, fatigue, constant dull stomach ache. Liquid diarrhea that has a really foul smell, dizziness. I did dishes today and barely got finished. Afterwards, I fell asleep for three hours. I have also been very cold, even though it is over 90 outside. I changed the shot location from my abdomen to my thigh and am currently taking .05mg. I have body aches and sore muscles now too. I tested negative for COVID-19 just last week so that isn't it. Can anyone enlighten me? Will I feel like this the entire time I am on this med? I am thankful for any input anyone can provide. Take care.
