For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Worst medication ever. On the lowest dose, I became deathly ill. I couldn't stop vomiting for a week. I could not walk because of extreme dizziness, and I could barely see from blurry vision. It also gave me the worst migraine of my life and suicidal thoughts and depression. I only lost weight because I could not eat at all and couldn't keep liquids down, so I was severely dehydrated. The side effects and long-term effects are so severe that the minor weight loss you would have from this medication is not worth it."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started on 0.25 Wegovy. The injections are painless and easy to administer. For the 4 weeks, I took this dose, I felt fine with little side effects. I lost 3 lbs. I then moved onto 0.5 dose. I took the dose on a Friday and woke in the middle of the night with terrible sudden reflux and vomiting. This happened for 3 nights. I took my next 0.5 dose the following Friday and the same happened, along with dizziness, constant nausea, and very low mood. I have decided not to take the last 2 injections I have left as I just feel so poorly."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I took 4 shots of .25 Wegovy. The first shot had no side effects and no problems. The second shot was a little different. Mild upset stomach starting about 24 hours afterward with some stomach pain. This subsided within the third day. My appetite was suppressed, felt fuller for longer. In the third shot, I had no appetite with stomach pain that lasted two days, and also felt as if I were going to pass out. I drank orange juice and ate saltine crackers with peanut butter, which helped. The last .25 shot of Wegovy… I had lost 12 pounds by this shot. But within a day, I was projectile vomiting, upset stomach, extreme pain in my abdomen, chills, and dizziness. I was taken to the emergency room. I was diagnosed with colitis that had gone to sepsis. The doctor explained a side effect from Wegovy may cause gastrointestinal problems. Wegovy attacked my colon and in turn, sepsis formed. I will not continue this shot. So many side effects go with it. It does curve your appetite, but I would be very cautious."
