For Type 2 Diabetes "Please stop taking Ozempic. I have been taking it for 12 weeks, started with 0.25 for the first 4 weeks, then moved on to 0.50. First 4 weeks, minor side effect, but my pulse rate started to go up resting from 65 to nearly 80. Once I started the 0.50 dose, I started to lose weight, lost 1 stone in 8 weeks, but suffered so much: vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, dehydration, depletion of magnesium in body, and resting heart rate to 94. Was hospitalized last week and was on a drip for 2 days. I have decided to stop taking it, my next injection is due in 2 days. I am hoping stopping does not cause other issues, I will revert to taking insulin. So please do not start this drug. There are other options to manage your diabetes."

For Cardiovascular Risk Reduction "I always had some side effects of Ozempic. Mainly exhaustion, nauseous, occasional throwing up after eating, constipation. As month 3 came and the dose increased to 1 mg, I ended up in the emergency room. I was vomiting and had liquid diarrhea for 4 days. My heart rate was elevated, and my potassium was dangerously low. At the time, I thought it was a stomach bug-until the next injection caused the same effects. I've been on anti-nausea medication since. I can see why it takes the appetite away-being exhausted and nauseous 24/7 is terrible. Potassium is still not where it should be. Hoping this gets out of my system fast."
