1. Nausea: Gastrointestinal side effects are among the most common with Ozempic. Nausea is reported by a notable percentage of users, especially during the initial weeks of treatment.
2. Vomiting: Some individuals may experience episodes of vomiting, particularly when starting Ozempic or if the dose is increased.

Abdominal pain, often described as cramping or discomfort, can occur. It is typically mild to moderate in intensity.

Ozempic’s impact on appetite regulation can lead to reduced food intake, contributing to weight loss. However, some individuals may find this effect more pronounced, leading to concerns about inadequate nutrition.

While less common than with some other diabetes medications, Ozempic can cause low blood sugar levels, leading to symptoms such as shakiness, sweating, and confusion. This risk is higher when used in combination with other diabetes medications that can cause hypoglycemia.

As Ozempic is administered via subcutaneous injection, some users may experience mild redness or swelling at the injection site.

In preclinical studies in rodents, Ozempic has been associated with an increased incidence of thyroid tumors. However, the relevance of these findings to humans is still under investigation.

While rare, cases of pancreatitis have been reported with Ozempic use. Individuals experiencing persistent, severe abdominal pain should seek medical attention promptly.

Some individuals may experience changes in kidney function parameters. Regular monitoring of kidney function is recommended during Ozempic treatment.

Although rare, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis have been reported. Individuals with a history of hypersensitivity reactions should exercise caution.
