Diarrhea symptoms?
I recently upped dosage from 1.0 to 1.7 mg. I had not experienced any side effects on the lower dosages, but starting with the 1.7 I got 5 days of constipation followed by 3 days of diarrhea. I have heard this abates but not found any information on how long it takes. Anyone else have experience of this?

Hello group. Just started a semaglutide generic a couple of weeks ago
It's difficult finding conversations and thoughts from people about semaglutide, probably in part because it goes by so many names I just took my third dose of 0.125, looks like others here are on a much higher dose. It really didn't do much for me the first two weeks but now lately food just kinda sits in my belly and I…

First day

Weight, blood pressure and blood sugars have been on the rise for a while now and dr.recommended ozempic to aid in this. I was pretty scared to do…

Introducing myself
Hello, 63 y.o., post menopausal, type 2 diabetic. I had my semi-annual wellness check up in Nov. and was not surprised to see that my A1C was 6.3. So I started Ozempic 2 weeks ago, 0.5 dose. So far I am down 10.5 lbs. The nausea, cramps, and fatigue are pretty annoying. Is this typical? Do these symptoms subside? Thanks.

Finished Ozempic - No Weight Gain
Hi all, I took Ozempic for about 9 months - went from 210lb to 149lb. I was addicted to eating for anxiety and because Ozempic made me not want to eat, I no longer have that urge. I'm keeping a wary eye on myself to be honest, as I've heard folks do gain it back. BUT I am seeing a naturopath and she is helping me stay on…

Help! Wanting to quit injections
I need your help. I have been taking ozempic for 6 months now. The vomiting, stomach cramps, nausea, and now constipation are awful. The doctor prescribed zofran but I am still throwing up. I feel awful. I’ve not really lost much weight. 15 pounds in six months. Any suggestions to help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Change group name to include Wegovy, Semaglutide?
First post in this group. Happy to be here. 3 weeks on Wegovy. Same drug as Ozempic, just prescribed for obesity instead of diabeties. I'm suggesting changing the group name to make it easier to find for others on semaglutide who may not think to search for one of the brand names. @timpicks

What Eating Plan do you follow?
Hi! I am Laura. I started injections one week ago (just had my second one today). I lost 1 pound which I know to be happy - just thought more for the first week. I will take it. Just curious what calorie/diet/eating plan do others follow? Happy to be here!
