"I have been on Ozempic for the past 1 1/2 months. Gradually increased from 0.25 mg for 4 weeks, then 0.5 mg since then. After reading other reviews, the best tip I found was injecting into my thigh instead of the abdomen. Mild nausea, backache, and constipation the first 2 weeks, and nothing now but the feeling of fullness soon after eating, about 75% as much as usual. I have less interest in sugary or fried foods and have lost 12 pounds, about 2 pounds a week. At 74, my Type 2 diabetes is diet-controlled with good A1C's, so my primary use is for weight loss and preserving kidney functioning. The tiny 27 gauge needle is painless, just wish I had discovered Ozempic sooner!"

"Took .25 for 4 weeks, now on week 3 of .5. Hardly eating, feel full all the time. A lot of burning, hiccups during the night, general tired feeling, losing some weight, some constipation. Supposedly will get balance at 12 weeks. Will see. So far, not comfortable. Pharmacist recommended Prilosec for gas, hiccups, etc."

"I have worked my way up to 1.0 mg Ozempic. Yes, it keeps my A1C intact and I have lost some weight too. But I suffer in other ways: constant nausea, dizziness, and stomach pain."
