I started on Wegovy 0.25 and the nausea was so bad I quit after 3 weeks. Because my BS started going up some, my endocrinologist recommended I go on Ozempic and try to "work through" the nausea. I missed 2 weeks between stopping the Wegovy and starting the Ozempic, so I restarted on 0.25 of Ozempic for 2 weeks, then 6 weeks of 0.5. My doctor ordered Ondansetron when I restarted to help me control the nausea. The nausea finally subsided on week 5 of the 0.5 Ozempic. I started 0.75 Ozempic yesterday and so far so good. I was supposed to go to 1mg, but I couldn't stand the thought of the nausea starting again by doubling the dose. My question is what other people have experienced as far as side effects as they continue to go up the dosing scale?
What did others experience while increasing Ozempic dosing?

After several years staying at the lowest dose, my endocrinologist suggested I go up by "10 clicks" with my bi-weekly dose. So far, about one month now, this has worked out okay.
