Unfortunately, I used it for 5 months and... nothing. With diabetes, I prefer cheaper drugs

Not only did I not lose weight, but I gained weight. 4 months share apps = + 8 kg. Magic... 🤦🏼‍♀️

To @Weronika:
The prescription code does not depend on what medicine is written on it. The code is automatically assigned with a sequence of 4 digits. I'm attaching a link to a helpful post:

How does the prescription code for ozempic begin?

To the senior, I have a diet, exercise and Italian Biotad Plus glutathione and it's okay.

I started 2 years ago with Ozempic 0.5 and went from 103 kg to 90 kg. Then I increased the medication to 1 mg. And I got to 88 kg. A year ago, while continuing to take Ozempic 1 mg, I started to gain weight, which today reaches 98 kg.
On the other hand, blood sugar remains under control at all times.

To @Dany:
If you do not notice weight loss after 3 months, you should first of all consult your attending physician. He can:

* Increase the dose of Ozempic to a maximum of 1 mg per week.

* Investigate the cause of the lack of response to the drug, e.g. hypothyroidism.

* Add other weight-loss medications, e.g. metformin for insulin resistance.

* Modify diet and physical activity for better results.

* Consider switching to therapy if Ozempic proves ineffective.

The lack of effectiveness of Ozempic in weight loss after 3 months of use may be due to an individual difference in response to the drug. About 5-10% of patients do not respond to this drug in the expected way. These are individual differences that can be influenced by other conditions, such as hypothyroidism or insulin resistance in PCOS syndrome.

Please note that Ozempic is effective when combined with a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Lack of lifestyle modifications may reduce the effect of the medicine.

If this situation raises doubts for you, it is always worth consulting a doctor who can provide more personalized advice. If you are not able to take advantage of an in-person visit, I attach a link to an online teleconsultation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja/z-diabetologiem

I can't lose weight with Ozempic after 3 months. Recommendations?

Hasta ani kolograma

great drug

Critically about the drug answer removed

From August 2023 on Ozempic first 0.25then 0.5 weight 96 for the next 6 months Ozempic 1mg weight 100.3 nausea and vomiting. Since 2000 swimming pool every day 2km, Saturday, Sunday, bike 20 -70km. Back to Qtern.Different Feeling. An overrated drug. Currently weight 95.9height175.overweight.

I find the elements of people laughing that Ozempik didn't work. It works for me, in two years 53 kg without any movement!!
Nothing just started eating less but this naturally by working with Ozempic.

So stop whining here, please write stupid things for everyone, it works differently. how it doesn't work it's written about it ... then stop and take another drug. Simple. Why do you make these philosophical arguments?

For the first 14 weeks I lost 1 kg per week, then half a kg per week. Now the weight is slowly but surely coming off. 8 months - minus 23kg. On its own, it will not slim you down. The same as the baraiatric operation. In a moment, you can stretch your stomach and return to your previous weight. I'm on a low GI diet. I got Ozempic for diabetes. I eat healthy and half as much on my plate. Sometimes I am hungry, sometimes I crave sweets. Initially, you actually have a weak appetite. After 9 weeks, the side effects such as nausea disappear and the appetite returns. Ozempic + diet + exercise. If someone hopes to lose weight just from the drug, it's a waste of money.

To @Elisa1953:
You should consult your doctor as soon as possible. Chronic diarrhoea can lead to dehydration, which is dangerous to health and life. Side effects observed should be reported to the doctor, who will decide on further treatment. We write about why adverse drug reactions should be reported here:

Good morning.
The doctor also prescribed me Ozempik because after covid I have sick lungs and it was difficult for me to walk, and what the hell to exercise. I'm diabetic 2 Ozempik helped me regulate my sugar and I lost 10 kg. I have a diabetic diet and I walk as much as possible, I also ride a stationary bike. I've had severe diarrhea for over two weeks and probably from injections. I don't know if it could be a side effect or some bacteria. I am very dehydrated and weak. Has anyone also had such symptoms?

Unfortunately, there are no effects for me either. The only thing I have more are gastric problems, stomach pain, nausea.

Yes! because it's such self-deception, I know 3 people taking ozempic, 2 with diabetes and one for weight loss
1 patient lost weight because she sticks to an anti-diabetic diet, the other lost 2 kg in a year, and the healthy one did not lose at all. Now she is angry because she could have spent this money on a trip and enjoyed life. Additionally, all 3 have mood swings and a decrease in iron ;(

Ozempic I heard something about him
I think it was a lecture by the Brothers Rodzeń.I don't think they spoke positively about it.

To people who write that giving anxiety to people without diabetes should be prohibited: I don't have diabetes, I have quite serious reactive hypoglycemia, metformin doesn't help with that, and a new type of medication like Ozempik does.
In addition, obesity is a serious disease. Studies show that diet and exercise, effective in the first 3 months of use, after more than a year cause an average weight loss of 2 kg compared to the initial weight, success is achieved by 2% of people who started to use diet and exercise seriously, and any treatment before Ozempik was surgical and only from BMI 35. We have obesity from a BMI of 30. There are other drugs for diabetes, but not for obesity, and most people with obesity have impaired glycemia: insulin resistance, hypoglycemia, etc. Apart from a few celebrities, no one can afford to take this drug for fun.

In the English-language press you can find information that if you are not losing weight on Ozampik, you need to check and normalize your thyroid. Remember that in addition to the blood test, you also need to do an ultrasound. And the second thing: Ozempik is totally gone. It reduces unhealthy, obsessive appetite, but many people still feel hungry, sweets do not stop being tasty, this remedy "for lazy people" makes it easier to stick to a diet, but it does not lose weight on its own. Also food scales, writing down everything you have eaten for a few days and with such a diary to a dietician

It doesn't work for me, I'm even getting fat.l

Yes it's me, and I have no side effects except the day after my 1st shot

I'm not losing weight, I'm still hungry and I've been taking only a dose of 0.25 since December 11, because I'm afraid of more, the sugars have dropped nicely, the weight is not much.

Yes, unfortunately, it is also the case with me, although I take Ozempic and have completely changed my diet and also have a gastric band, I do not lose weight, I have various pre-existing conditions and can do little sports, but nevertheless I know people who have lost weight rapidly after a short time, only for me it does not😭 work

Some people think they will take Ozempic and the matter is settled. Dear Diet, and Exercise. But most of all, it's a cure for type 2 diabetes, not a miracle cure for the lazy. Then the diabetic has a problem with the availability of the drug.

To @Ирина:

Ozempic is not a typical weight loss product, so it is difficult to determine when and if the expected effect of the therapy will appear. The full benefits of weight loss medication treatment can usually be seen after a few months of regular use.

For undulliu, ves no usёl

To @Karo6455:

If your doctor thinks that this treatment is appropriate for your situation, he or she may issue a 100% prescription. This can be done by any doctor who can provide this type of treatment, including a primary care physician. In practice, patients are most often treated by endocrinologists or diabetologists.

If you are using the drug, you should also continue to work on new eating habits that will allow you to be in a caloric deficit (eat less than you should) and remember about regular physical activity or, for example, quitting smoking. Please remember that the treatment is long-term and the weight does not drop immediately or there are moments when it "stands still" and it is worth being patient.

I have quite a big problem with losing weight, I am on a diet and I move a lot and I would like to try this drug but unfortunately I don't know how I can get a prescription if I don't have diabetes. My nutritionist recommended this drug to me himself.

I have a medicine with a dose of 0.25
It was supposed to be 4 doses, but after 4 I had 3 more doses ... Has anyone had that? Now I've started a new pack and again I can see that the drug didn't go away after the first administration of !! Please help if anyone has had this

to lose weight on Ozempic you have to move lazily. The drug reduces appetite, sitting on your butt will not get you into a deficit anyway.

Yes, I haven't lost weight yet.

I've been reading ozempic since January 12th and unfortunately so far I've lost maybe 2 kg, and the worst thing is that the scale hasn't moved at all for a month. In general, I feel that the drug works because I don't feel like sweets and I don't eat them at all and I eat much less than before, and the effects are not visible so far.

I'm taking 3 months, I've lost 15kg out of 130.. the only problem is constipation.

I feel the same way. I also lost 6 kilos in the beginning. But now not a kilo anymore. My diabetologist says that it goes 5 to 10% of people who take Ozempic. What's super annoying is that I have to call pharmacies every three months to get Ozempic. It should be forbidden to give out to non-diabetics.

Unfortunately, I don't lose weight. Morbid obesity, BMI over 51. I've been taking since December, the weight is stagnant. But I won't say I have type II diabetes and sugar is holding beautifully.

From WEGOWI, this is the same Ozempic, but already for weight loss, someone is losing weight and someone is not, these are purely individual characteristics.

Ozempic is registered as a drug for weight loss in America and Germany under the name WEGOWI.The only difference is that there is more active substance in Vegav than in Ozempic.So let those "doctors" who fantasize about something about the dangers of Ozempic better leave their conclusions to themselves.

I've been taking it for more than a month and unfortunately it's not having any effect on me but my problem maybe depends on the fact that I suffer from panic attacks and take benzodiazepines and antidepressants

This drug only reduces appetite.I also lost little weight at the beginning but I started walking and after two months I was losing 10kg

My daughter was prescribed this medicine by a doctor a year ago, she lost 50kg, we in Iceland inject it only once a month, no one has any side effects registered
