      For a drug to have a beneficial effect, it also means that it'll have unwanted side effects as well. If something doesn't have any side effects, then that drug is likely to not have any effect whatsoever.

    My 42 year old son just got out of the hospital in July for a bowel obstruction. He does have diabetes and is obese, so this drug was recommended to him. You have to be EXTREMELY CAREFUL about making sure you stay on top of any constipation! My husband takes miralax daily and has been fine so far. My son has been taken off the medication. The pain and misery he went through was heartbreaking and his belly swelled up like a balloon and was very firm. Not everyone will have a problem but for those who do, like this woman, it can be life changing.

    I will give this credit to Ozempic though - it stopped the food noise COMPLETELY. No nagging plotting and planning on how my nightly snack binge was going to go. No obtrusive thoughts on how to plan my drive home so I could stop at this store and that store to pick up the snacks I wanted. No working like a mad lady in the gym in an attempt to outrun the snackage. No more 15 piece Wingstop plus a 2pc order of chicken strips and fries every week. Life started to flow naturally and I felt normal and free from the bondage of food for the first time since the 1990's.

    I have been on Ozempic for a year now. It has lowered my A1C and I lost a little weight from it. Mainly due to my not being able to eat anything without feeling nauseous. Stomach pain was horrible the first few months. I learned that you have to take some kind of fiber or stool softener to keep the bowels moving on this med. it is doing what it was created to do, slow your digestion down so you feel full all the time. So it is important to make sure you are regular.
    It is scary to think about the possible side effects as it just hasn’t been tested enough. I feel for this poor woman.

      @@MNP208 Also, one's PCP (or prescribing dr) should go over potential side effects and risks AND have regular checkups (usually monthly or every 3 months depending on one's health issues and co-morbidities) as well as regular bloodwork. All issues are discussed, along with weigh-ins, at these regular check ups! Any responsible dr should also discuss the importance of proper water/ protein/ electrolyte/calorie intake and exercise. These meds are tools to be used WITH lifestyle changes, not cure-alls while ignoring the instructions that are CLEARLY written on the packaging, company websites, as well as discussed with qualified physicians who are informed on these meds. in addition, each of the companies that produce these meds (including compound pharmacies) have easily accessible telephone numbers if you have ANY questions about the meds that you feel your physician didn't answer to your satisfaction. There are also countless support groups and videos on-line that, if used with common sense, offer helpful tips on does and donts.
      I am very sorry that she (or any one) suffered such severe side effects, but her lawsuit is unlikely to be very successful because her specific issue IS discussed on ALL of information put out by the companies and SHOULD have been discussed by her dr. before she was Rx'd them. My beef would be with the physician who, IMO, is the one who failed her.
      PS: Constipation is a common side effect. CALL YOUR DR AND ASK FOR HELP if you don't poop for a week!!!! Common sense here, folks! Her issue, most likely (barring a pre-existing or previously undiagnosed issue), could ave been avoided. Sad.

    All drugs have side effects. There are a handful of serious cases like this out of 15,000,000 users. The vast, vast majority of people taking these drugs have been able to lose significant weight after countless other techniques failed. Most insurance plans will not cover GLP-1s unless the patient has demonstrated significant effort to lose weight by other means. The comments here about "shortcuts" and comparisons to other drugs like opioids are alarmingly myopic. The risk-benefit ratio is very low.

      GLP-1 drugs are known to increase the risk of developing gastroparesis. Pharmacists and doctors are aware of it, and should do their due diligence to avoid its use in that population (those who have it or those who have a family history).
      Of course, with any new drugs on the market, there's still more research and clinical trials being done even after the drug is FDA approved and comes to market. And some side effects don't come into play further down the line. New findings might come to light with more long-term studies.

It as all they had at the food bank. Protein as a SCARCE commodity. So was insulin. Hospitals filled with covid patients, they couldn't take the time to make sure the homeless had INSULIN. No money no help, no discussion. i will spend what is left of my life on multiple medications to extend it. Yes fruits veggies lean protein....NOw. I won't touch the things I had to eat.

    When did this happen to her? The warnings for stomach paresis are on the medications and on the RX inserts when purchased. How can she say it was preventable if it’s an extremely rare side effect. So do you decide to take a life saving medication with an extremely rare side effect or eventually die of what’s killing you anyway? No one could have given her adequate for knowledge because what happened to her was unlikely to happen. She’s asking the company to take personal responsibility for something that she was warned about but decided might not happen to her. We all know there’s a risk in taking any medication. Had that specific risk not been on the label is a different story. Why wouldn’t the company have settled out of court if that complication wasn’t on the label? Most companies settle if there’s an unforeseen side effect and then update the label. The question is what was on the label when she took the medication? If it was there why is she more entitled to money than any one else suffering from the drugs side effects?

    Another possibility is simply a scumbag attorney who, knowing this is a bogus case, is taking it anyway 1) for the publicity 2) in hopes that Novo Nordisk will throw some cash their way in order settle out of court to avoid the PITA of dealing with a sheister lawyer. It’s total BS as the risk of developing the issue she suffered is CLEARLY noted on the medication.

    I had a bad reaction to a non opioid analgesic once, so? why is this news? side effects are part of any drug treatment and the rare ones will be apparent only after the drug is approved and commercialized. That's why post marketing surveillance studies exist.

    Just because she didn’t read the risks doesn’t negate her responsibility to do so. Her weight and diabetes predisposition already made her a ticking time bomb, so it’s a bit disingenuous to blame the drug. It’s a serious decision to try these meds and are a last resort for many patients such as this woman, but they aren’t perfect. The risk:benefit ratio has to be considered as well as self-monitoring for side effects.
