Nausea is one of my least favorite sensations to feel.
Nonetheless, I am sure every single one of us has experienced nausea, and/or vomiting on many occasions over the course of our lives. The problem with nausea is it is like fatigue, it is nondescript and could have countless causes, everything from early pregnancy to a viral infection and everything in between.
Nausea is also a common side effect of the GLP-1 RAs medications used for diabetes and obesity.
⚠️ Are you experiencing nausea due to your medication? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!

Ozempic landed me in the ER @theofficialdrdan
He starts talking about dealing with the nausea at 6:50.
Thank you
Thank you!
Thank you!
Not all hero's wear capes
Life saver 🙌🏻
never had any nausea from Ozempic. lost 113 lbs , about 20 lbs from my goal weight.
Good for you!!! 👏🏾 How long were you on it?
@@candij5632 1 year still on it . thank you ☺️
@@VintageDiscoveries amazing
Have made any other lifestyle changes like exercise, diet etc?
@@VintageDiscoveries thank you. Just finished my first week of the tablet form of Ozempic. Already was on a low carb diet with walking and badminton. Lost 2 kgs. Early days yet. Your journey is inspirational , i have 40 kgs to go to reach my desired weight 🤞
I was so scared of the side effects, and I had none.
I am having horrible nausea, heartburn, vomiting and belching like rotten eggs and diarrhea to constipation.
Me too
Sorry to hear that, are you following aeverything that he says and still unwell? I am trying to wait for the right time when I can afford time to be this unwell.
It’s absolutely terrible!! I’m one of the poor souls who had sporadic nausea and vomiting. Took it for 2 months but stopped; gonna gather tips and try again.
If you get tachycardia, weird limb sensations, etc... get a urine pbg and ala test when you're at peak vomiting symptoms
I was a poor soul as well
@@puddlesplasher7what does having those symptoms mean? Am I sick with something ?
I’ve been throwing up for 24hrs can’t hold down water 😢 I feel hungover or something. I think my dosage was too high …I doubt I’ll take it anymore
Just took my wegovy injection today. The nausea hit me about 5hrs afterwards. I took two chewable pepto tabs and so far I feel better after only 10 minutes.
Does pepto same to work every time you get nauseated? I was thinking of taking it right before going to bed maybe I wouldn’t feel it as bad 😆
I been taking my wegogy i am on week 6 and man I am sick for the first few days with nausea.
Be careful could really cause bad constipation
@@zhernandez8287 so 50/50 nausea and good days since they are weekly injections?
24 hours into my first wegovy injection and no nausea so far! 🙏🏼
Just started the first week of Wegovy a few days ago. The nausea is worst when I first wake up. I’ve been taking ginger chews and over the counter medicine. Hopefully my body adapts soon. I’ve been averaging a lb a day so far this week. Good luck everyone.
Tu dr te puede recetar ondresatron un medicamento para las nauseas y ayuda sobre todo cuando empiezas el tratamiento ya luego el cuerpo se acostumbra y ya no mo nesesitas animo
My first injection made me very nauseous for about 20 hours. After that it was gone and I never had it again even with other doses.
I pray this is the case for me
If you don't mind me asking, which injection site did you use for the first one and then those after? I'm about to take line and I'm wondering if taking it in the thigh would be to less nausea
The nausea is real! Happens every time I eat, which in turn makes me not want to eat
The pain is the treatment. 2:03
This is exactly what happens…. 😂😂😂
Same
Dr said I would lose weight now I know how.
Take antigas medicine after you eat. It really helped me.
I just took my second dose of 1mg ozempic. I started on 0.25 the beginning of October 2023 with no problem. Started 1mg on November 9, 2023 and i was extremely nauseous and vomiting all day. Just took my second dose of 1mg this morning November 16 at 10:30 along with my other medication and Zofran for nausea. It now 12:10 so far so good. I'm really thinking i should not inject in my stomach and there will be less nausea. Someone shared that about there experience and that is exactly what i did this morning. Praying this works 🙏
Did it work?
Peppermint tea is MAGIC for nausea.
I live on deTerra peppermint beadlets. Better than Ondansetron! But it gets expensive. I’ll try the tea.
Thanks!
I took my first Ozempic shot yesterday. I am at the point where I can’t even take any solid food. And believe me, I was eating bland food and a smaller portion. I couldn’t even eat toast. I just ate an apple because I was desperate to have something.I called my doctor today and he never called me back. Which makes me even more upset. Hopefully I hear from him tomorrow. I’m just afraid I’m going to be throwing up every day for the next week until I can stop taking this medication.
Very helpful! I quit taking ozempic a few months ago because of nausea and constipation! I just started on it again last night. I went from a blood glucose of 290 yesterday to 119 after lunch today so I have to do this!
yes, I agree results are great with lower blood Glucose levels so far. I'm just 3 weeks on ozempic. I'm having nausea at night. I have to start checking on what I'm eating. Thanks
This is the best info I’ve gotten from any of the videos i have watched.i h ave the nausea myself and the recommendation of eating smaller meals more often is exactly what ive been doing as my full bell rings very quickly. Thankyou for sharing this info and helping me realize that I have been doing it on my own and its ok.
Started Ozempic in March 2022 @ .25. Experienced wicked diarrhea (the kind that you need to find a bathroom STAT). Moved up to .50 as the diarrhea calmed right down. Went up to .75, no side effects. Then end of August I was bumped up to 1.0. No issues, except for the burps (burp felt like I had just guzzled a carbonated drink). All of September and October and into November I was great on the 1.0. Then almost the end of November, the nausea hit me. Would literally knock me flat on my back. I couldn’t even go to the grocery store it was that bad. I called my Pharmacist (been dealing with her for 28 years) and she said it’s normal to get nausea when I’ve been on it this long. But I can’t understand how I went almost 3 months at 1.0 and no issues, to all of a sudden getting the nausea. I take ginger pills, ginger Gravol, suck on peppermint lifesavers, and will resort to the medicated Gravol if I’m really bad. My sugars are excellent (averaging 5.5 and that’s fasting, and my A1C went from 6.4 to 5.6) my weight was 227 in March and now it’s down to 206 (I’m 54 and 2 years postmenopausal, metabolic syndrome and PCOS before menopause). I’ve gone back down to .75, but the nausea is still there. I am so happy this weight is finally coming off and I’m doing all the tricks everyone is saying to do, but it’s draining me.
Msg me please. I have a few questions
Been there,got the t shirt, in t totally controls your life, I had to speak to my diabetes nurse, n she thought my blood sugars were too low on ozempic.5 so put me back to own to 0.25 much happier.
I was very sick after the first few days... struggled with water unless I was sipping it and even had to take 2 days of work... However it has now settled and I have learned the hard way to eat little and often ... thanks for the great advice xoxxo
Yes, definitely, how much you eat has a huge impact when on ozempic.x
Same here had to take off work hopefully i will adapt
I just started and it is amazing , so much more energy , feel amazing , i have Hashinotos and this is the best i have felt in 10 years .Brain fog gone , no nausea, no vomiting.
Great video. I went to a nice Italian restaurant last night and had to leave after the soup because I knew I was going to get sick… and I did! Week 2 Mounjaro… 2.5. I missed out on my pasta, darn it. 🤮🤢
Nausea for me wasn't really a problem ...my biggest problems Is fatigue and tireness...
Me too. Exhausted
First shot yesterday and experiencing severe nausea and uncontrollable vomiting!! Dr appointment this evening
I have been on the GLP-1 for 6 weeks now and the nausea is REAL! But....I am one to get motion sickness very easily, even when I drive! I read it will go away with time and that is correct. I never got to the point of vomiting, but honestly, I have been close. 6 weeks in and the nausea is subsiding. I knew I was going to be the one that nausea was going to happen to so I expected it and delt with it because....
I have already lost 16 pounds of the 50 I want to lose!!! Now, I am 52 and have been on everything you can possibly think of and since menopause nothing worked. Spent thousands of dollars the past few years and nothing until I stumbled upon this! WOW!
I have maybe ever commented on a video one other time and I felt the need to let you know, everything he said is exactly right with GLP-1.
Eat slower, you will be fuller, you will have an upset stomach if you eat too much and quite frankly, I am a big eater and with this, I don't have the desire to stuff my face all the time. For me, its truly a miracle! Worth the upset stomach I get here and there for sure. Its tolerable and eventually will go away as it is subsiding now. I truly hope this helps anyone with their decision to try this. If you are at a point where nothing has worked and it seems your body is just working against you, try this! It works!!! Oh, and by the way, MY STOMACH IS THE FIRST THING I SEE SHRINKING! Hope this helps :)
I'm also someone with motion sickness and I was vomiting really bad on my first three days of taking this. good for you!
Second week. Two episodes of nausea. The first one I thought I was going to throw up but waited it out. The second one was milder. Still on the 0.25mg dosage. Fingers crossed.
I have binge eating disorder and started Wegovy 6 weeks ago. I have only lost 3 lbs. Because of the severe nausea, I have been unable to binge, yet I am not losing weight like I thought I would. I have had 2 severe vomiting fits in this 6 week period. I was searching and found this video and im going to call my dr and talk to her more about it.
Are you hydrated? I know this sounds weird, but if you’re not staying hydrated your scale # won’t appear to move
I watch another RUclipsr who says she is satisfied with .5 lb per week as long as it stays off. She had that happen and got discouraged and upped her protein through shakes and started losing 1 lbs a week after... I hope this helps! I'd be so discouraged with only .5 a lb too
My first GLP experience is with Mounjaro. I started back in September. I ran into severe nausea when I tried to titrate up. I'm not back on the lowest dosage and handling it OK with occasional nausea meds. This video definitely helped me understand the mechanism of why this is happening a bit better!
Projectile vomited today until there was nothing left to come up. 2 days after restarting Trulicity. Never been that sick in my life.
Thank you for helpful tips. You confirmed what I had noticed. I am in my 5th week and experience nausea with occasional vomiting following my weekly injection for 2-3 days. I began to realize that portion sizes were contributing to nausea. So instead of 5-6 ounces of protein, I have cut back to about 3 ounces at one time. At meals, I eat protein first and the maybe 1-2 ounces of a veggie (non starchy) at meal time. I only eat a couple of meals a day as I am not hungry. With smaller portions I am beginning to have less nausea. At the end of 4 weeks I had lost 16 pounds.
I'm similar - I can handle any physical discomfort, except nausea. I'm only on week 2.5 of Ozempic, and I'm not sure I can last much longer. The fatigue, the heartburn... my nausea so far is dependent upon the acid reflux. Honestly though, the fatigue (including nonrefreshing sleep) is the biggest killer. It practically takes away one's will to live. Cheers from Ottawa. :)
On day two and I can't wait until the week ends. Never again.
I’ve had GERD for decades so I’ve dealt with nausea for a long time. I’ve found that Mylanta works the best for nausea and heartburn, the full dose. It tastes terrible though so I plug my nose. 😆
Same! I'm on week one day 5 and I finally feel normal. Holy cow. The nausea, the exhaustion, the dizziness. It's AWFUL. The fatigue is bizarre. Like I ran a marathon while on a hunger strike(not hungry btw), all while spinning in circles.
Please talk to
Your doctor. That last comment worries me.
@@PsychGirlRaven thank you!!! I went off the Rx and feel much better. :)
I’m going on the 10 week mark and down 26 lbs. I find the nausea is from over eating particularly breads and crappy foods. I eat higher protein meals and try not to eat late as it will be with me all night. If I eat late it will be an easier digestible protein or veggies. No steak past 4PM
As of last week down 39 pounds. Had to go off Semiglutide about a month ago. As hunger was fierce. No hunger for the first 4 months. Then it turned on like a switch.
Went on Monjourno tomorrow is my 4th injection. Took about 3 to 4 days for hunger go away once on monjourno.
I think that ozempic causes the same thing that happens when kids eat too much candy. But with a lot less food.
Which one? I'm on Tulicity feel the effects but not losing. I'm on week 5
Eat some raw ginger or Ginger gummies. That will clear the nausea immediately.
I'm on 9 and 1/2. Had pizza on week 7 and 9. Bad, bad ,bad idea. I seem to be able to eat fruits and vegetables fine and the occasional lean meat. I can't even stand to look at a pizza commercial!
I started Wegovy @ 0.25mgs yesterday (May 16th, 2023). Today I’ve had some horrible nausea but! I’m hopeful the nausea will wear off once my body gets used to the medication. I’m so happy my insurance approved Wegovy!
Started Sunday evening. Was hoping to minimize symptoms by taking in the evening. Monday was the worse. I was not hungry at all but I was getting a headache so had a yogurt, banana and later a salad with protein. At around 2pm the nausea was so bad that I started to projectile vomit. That the coworkers got concern. I went home and slept the rest of the afternoon. No more symptoms. Hoping it was the initial side effect and going to change my injection date to Saturday evening then move forward Friday that way I can at least be home should it continue. Before stopping all together
Thank you so much you answered all of my questions. I have been pretty nervous about starting this medication. It's been in my fridge for a 3 days lol. You make me feel better and knowing what most people feel and at what extreme. Now to decide if I should take it in the morning or at night.
This is me right now. It’s been in my fridge 3 days scared to take take it. Did you ever start taking it? What were your symptoms?
Yes how are you both sis you proceed
I have had mine since yesterday😂 and keep wimping out of doing it! Glad for once to see I'm not alone!
@@Foxiepawstotti same what dose you going to start with?
Thanks for this video Dr. Dan. I've been on Wegovy for 3 weeks and I've lost 10 lbs. I've had light nausea here and there but just popped a ginger capsule and it went away.
I'm nausea all day every day and I've been on it for a year!!
I was on trulisity for 8 months. I list 80 pounds in 6 months time. I definitely got nauseous an the smell of good made me nauseous as well. I vomited a few times. My doctor didn't warn me of weight loss, I just kept loosing and didn't know why. I found out about having endometrial cancer and thought that was why. I felt better and felt pretty when I list weight. I'm getting back on it next week. I need to loose 60 pounds and I'm very hopeful and getting my sugars down is a plus. 2024 let's go!🎉
Awww ! I just started it. I'm 220 pounds I'm hoping to loose at least 45 pounds or even 50+ .
@DogMommy. I didn't loose but 4 pounds on trulisity so I switched to ozempic and not loosing at all. I'm eating like a bird but my doctor said that what I am eating is full of grease and fats. Just still have to cut back on bad foods.
Does anyone on any of these drink?
I had a glass of wine and I've been sick 4 days.
I took Ozempic for several months and I did lose weight, however, I did experience nausea and vomiting because I have diabetic gastroparesis. The doctor took me off of Ozempic this week. I threw up so much I couldn't believe it. I'm disappointed that I had to stop taking the medication because it does work. Good luck to all that it's working for.
How long after you stopped did the symptoms go away? Two weeks for me and stopped, buy then the symptoms came back even though I stopped 2.5 weeks ago
@ericmaya3657 I'm sorry to hear that. I believe the symptoms went away right after I stopped Ozempic. You should contact your doctor. In the meantime, try Meczline. It's for nausea. I hope that your symptoms will go away soon 🙏🏽
Tirzepetide has fewer side effects and you can get it in a vial and take lower doses.
Was just prescribed Wegovy. If I get too sick where it affects me greatly, then I'm just going to stop. I'll just workout & diet the old fashioned way.
Just started Wegovy the other day…… Having very slight nausea from time to time (it could also be part of my GERD). So I’m making myself eat at a much slower rate, and eating much smaller to see how I do. The nausea isn’t that bad enough to make me want to not eat it all though. It could be mind over matter at the same time.
I tried Ozempic for a little over a year. I started at the .25 mg dose and went up to the .5 mg dose. I had nausea with vomiting the first few days after my injection each week. Even though I was careful about what I ate and not eating too late in the day, I would get nausea in the morning - often on an empty stomach - and it made getting ready for work challenging. I took a 4 mg Zofran pill to help with the nausea on those days. My care provider suggested I go back to the .25 mg dose of Ozempic to see if the lower dose would help, as I was still experiencing nausea after nine months of being on Ozempic. My nausea never went away, so I eventually stopped taking Ozempic. However, my blood glucose levels rose and I regained the 20 lbs. I had lost while on Ozempic, which was disappointing. Now, I just recently switched to a different diabetes drug. Hopefully the new drug works for me. I think Ozempic was great for making me feel full faster and for the weight I lost. I still think Ozempic is well worth using - if it works for you and you can handle the side effects. My husband also takes Ozempic at the higher 1 mg dose and he does not have any of the negative side effects. It leads me to believe that it just depends on the individual.
My husband is taking ozempic he has 0 side effects I'm sicker than a dog.
Eat some raw ginger or Ginger gummies. That will clear the nausea immediately.

Thank you for the very descriptive description of nausea while being nauseous... lol
😂😂😂😂
The pharmacy ran out of the Ozempic, and I went almost 2 months without it. So, I started back taking it yesterday, and I have been vomiting since yesterday. I should have waited until this morning to take it. But I was so excited to get it that I took it around 5pm, an hour after eating chicken and broccoli Alfredo from Olive Gardens and 2 hours prior to eating chicken and rice casserole, green beans and cornbread. I was throwing up about 5 hours later and then again about 2 hours after that. I was feeling very drained and afraid to eat. So, about 2 pm today, I drank a slimfast. Well, about 5pm, the salty, acidic tasting fluid filled my mouth just like it did the other 2 times, and I threw up the slimfast. I am praying that this goes away soon. 🙏🏾
Omg! You are my spirit human! I would have done the exact same thing right down to Olive Garden😂😂😂😂
I did that had fried shrimp and a big piece of chocolate cake. Oh my gosh still feeling nauseated. And the sugar from the cake, it was like the sugar intensified. Won’t do that again. You pay the price ugh🤢🤢🤢
Wrist Sea Bands work great, I wear mine all day long. No more nausea!! 😊
I have worn my sea bands for years successfully!!!!
I am ordering now lol
What one do you buy the one I got does not work at all :-(
Great idea! I’ll try that!
Which sea band do you buy and where do you buy it?
Sick as a dog with nausea but losing weight. Pepto bismal helped.
Omg I can't stand it ... Been throwing up for 3days...
I didn’t get any side effects nothing because I was busy all the time especially after my shot I was busy so no side effects wegovy I love it
Maintaining consistency with Wegovy can be challenging due to a current nationwide shortage. As a result, there are instances where patients may receive their medication on time one month and then experience delays of up to three weeks the following month. This unpredictability can significantly impact treatment adherence.
My mother had the vomiting with Ozempic, but it was associated with specific foods. She over experimental food tests, she found the foods that didn't upset her. Over time, she was able to consume more foods over time. My mother found some foods she enjoyed a lot before going on Ozempic, and she no longer had any interest in eating anymore. I will have to check in on her to see if that has changed.
Me too, have to be careful with red meat,fried foods, and some seafood, also fizzy drinks, have started charting what I eat, then will know safe foods (that don't cause sulphur burps, diarrhea and vomiting) and hopefully a better existence.good luck to your Mum xx
Just check that she is eating enough or she can pass out.
Immensely helpful video. I've been barfing like crazy since doc went from 1.5mg to 3mg. I had no idea my issue was Trulicity but everything matches what hes saying!
My husband tried Ozempic. As soon as he raised his dose on week 4, he began puking profusely. He also started sulfur burping, which he normally only gets 24 hours before coming down with a stomach virus from food poisoning. He stopped taking it and is CONVINCED there’s something very toxic and dangerous about Ozempic in his gut. It took him SIX FULL WEEKS to get rid of the sulfur burps after stopping it.
All potential side effects. And makes sense in terms of how long it takes the drug to clear the body.
I agree
Did he talk to his physician and read the drug label?
Glad I found this video. I’m 6 weeks in and have lost 17 lbs so I’m happy with the results but definitely having nausea and vomiting. Hoping it gets better soon.
It should!
How you feel now.?
@@adr1ana1000 still have vomiting a few times a month but doing good. Lost 27 lbs.
@@PamelaMathias84 I n.v hope you feel better in time. Thank you for the information. I just start today .but I noticed I have nauseas only when I eat.
@@adr1ana1000
If kids eat too much candy, they get a stomach ache.
I think ozempic causes the same problem but at much lower amounts of food.
Love your content. Very helpful and u speak the language that that patients can understand. Awesome job!❤
Ive been using Trulicity for 6 months never been nauseous nor vomited. Combining it with special intermittent fasting for diabetic. avoiding carbs/sugars and I constantly exercise. lost 25 lbs in 5 months. lower A1c and cholesterol. My only concern is that I just watched a doctor’s video in youtube that says Trulicity and similar medications make cause pancreatic disorder😮. is this true? So far my last months test were all good. the only side effect I’m experiencing is constipation.
On trulicity 3mg take it on a sat night and feel it 15 hours later or after a normal breakfast ... but lowers appetite with weight loss only happens next day and nausea subsides soon after defo working as 6.7 kg loss after 12 weeks on 1.5 mg now on 3.0 mg injection dulaglutide
I took it last year, no problems. I had an operation and had to stop it for 6 months then i started it again this week, but I'm getting super sick, like I'm constantly going to throw up. I took motolium but it's not working 🤢
I remembered i used the single dose done last year, but using the Kwik pen now. Can that be the problem?
I didn't get any side effects till 1.7 on wegovy. Lost 10 pounds in 10 weeks. 40 to go.
I have violent vomiting after taking any injectable drugs (ozempic, trinity, mounjaro). It lasted 4 days after injection. I had one "okay" day, one food day ... then I had to start the pattern all over again. I could only do it for 3 weeks. I then went on a very low dose ozempic and gradually worked up the dose. I'm still not at the full dose and its been a few months.
Good advice. I’m going to try these suggestions. Thanks Doctor.
I have been extremely constipated on wegovy 1ml, my 6th week. Feeling like food is already stuck in my oesophagus to the point it feels like stones and hurts and presses me inside, and makes me want to throw up. I can't even get enough proteins in my body now. I can't eat hardly anything and then feeling super weak getting into a vicious cycle of not being able to eat, feeling weak, and not being able to eat even more. I don't have much more to lose. But I'm afraid a bit. Doctors just tells me that it's individual for everyone and that's it. He told me it's up to me if to quit or not in the middle of teaching my goal weight loss. But how should I know if it's serious enough to stop or not?...I hope I'm not on the way to a stomach paralysis or something..the doctor just kinda brushes it off not knowing what to tell me unless he runs some invasive tests or something
Took the shot last night at 8:30 at 10:30 the nausea hit and at 1 am I vomited and diarrhea at the same time 😅 took a shower went back to bed at 3 am again ran to the bathroom again at 5am and again at 9am took a sip of electrolyte and 2 grapes and vomited right away. Finally was able to sleep at around 1 pm woke up at 3pm running to the bathroom. Haven’t been able to keep anything down. The shakes and the vomiting are kicking my butt.
I just went up to 20ml two weeks ago and I feel some level of nausea constantly. I have thrown up multiple times after meals or without any food at all. But I am finally making progress with my weight loss so I am scared to change anything.
With your guidance I titrated up thanks Dr. Dan. I also stopped my injections in the abdomen area. Since stopping the abdomen injections, I have no vomiting, just nauseated if I don’t eat timely and small meals.
Amazing!
where do you inject it? I heard similar stories from other people who inject to leg instead of stomach and don't experience too much nausea.
Very good video but it took you a long time to tell us how to manage the nausea. I have subscribed and will watch your other videos. Thank you.
I have been having severe nausea for two days since I started Saxenda. It's lasting throughout the whole day...I don't know how long will this last?
Should hopefully subside in a week or so.
I seem to vomit when I over exert myself, walking up a hill, playing a game, tennis or pickleball even several hours after eating.
Best advice I have seen . Wish my Physician had done this
I increased my dosage and haven't been able to get out of bed the sickness is so damn bad!
Definitely follow up with dr
I moved up to 1.0 on wegovy and and been vomiting/diarrhea for 4 days. I’m reallly hoping it stops. Kind of scared to take my next dose
I'm sorry this happened to you. Please talk with your doctor! 💙
Was on OZ for a year and lost 20lbs. Went off 6mths ago. Started back on it yesterday the 0.05 doze. Started feeling nauseous about 5 hours later. Felt terrible all night long. This morning still feel pretty bad.😢
Keep in touch with your doctor and/or healthcare team - you're not alone! 💙
Been on 0.5 for over a year and a half, doc put it up to 1mg four months ago...since the bigger dose, after 2 episodes of projectile vomiting, diarrhea and also 24/7 nausea i give up. Its making me take time of work..been in bed all weekend, and living of water and 2 slices of toast. ... just sick of feeling really unwell...im on it for diabetes2,
Just started wegovy and they gave me the 1mg portion. Feel like death vomiting randomly throughout the day. Hope it gets better, haven't been able to eat yet..
Has it gotten better? I had to go off it because it was killing my stomach. Every night it hurt and I never could sleep. The I would vomit if not diarrhea. I went off it but want to try again and maybe drinking a lot more
Will help.
The same started Monday, and I wasn't able to go to work the next day 😢awful
@@lileshanshan7044 it took an entire month to get out of my body
I get it when I wake up it just hits me and I end up vomiting from the extreme feeling of nausea. Literally don't even puke nothing just clear liquid comes up this is awful.ive been on 5mg of jardience for about 3 months now and also ozempic for 3 months for my type 2 diabetes
I'm sorry this is happening to you. Talk with your doctor and see if something can be done to alleviate your nausea. 💙💙
What aboit if i tace digestion enzymes ,dod it help with this nausia..bcs of brake down the food better?
I didn’t start the side effects until I went up to a 5 and all I’m going to say is that I’m going back to a 2.5 🤢. I can’t do it i thought I could press through but can’t
I'm glad you're listening to your body 💙💙
I’ve been vomiting for over 24hrs, from every hour to 3.5. I can’t even drink water w/o it coming back up at some point.
Everyone says that the nausea and vomitting will go away once you get used to the medication. I had the opposite reaction.
I've been on the medication for diabetes (NOT weight loss) for almost a year, but all of a sudden, I started projectile vomitting all within one month. One time, it was the 3rd of 4 doses on a pen, and the second time, it was the first dose of a new pen. So, it wasn't a bad pen vial or anything.
My doctor insisted that I was just hitting a vein, but I find that to be a ridiculous answer. After months and months of taking the medicine, how am I suddenly hitting veins all within a single month? Lucky?
I honestly feel like my body suddenly began rejecting the medicine, or they changed the formula suddenly.
I took my second shot on empty stomach at 5:30 pm on Sunday Tuesday I was so so sick water diarrhea every 20 mins for over 12 hours and puking. I feel better TODAY AND ITS SATERDAY. my shot is due tomorrow how can I take half of a .25 ...
I can’t even eat small meals. I’m vomiting so bad first night of medication. I’m never taking this again. This is horrible. I’ll stay my 153 at 5’2 I don’t look bad.
It is definitely safer to stay at your current weight than continue to take this shite.

Had n/v/d on the second day after first injection then never again. Then suddenly, Had it again after the Fourth day after third injection.
Switched from Trulicity 3.0 to Ozempic 2.0 and has been on a roller coaster,had a little nausea on Trulicity within 2 days after I took the shot but this Ozempic happened within 8 hours.Maybe it’s the switch from Trulicity (dulagultide )and Ozempic is a semiglutide and the dose. Maybe I should have did a lower dosage ,,,
No advice for those with nausea currently and no access to further medications? It's stupid o'clock in the night, I'm in a small town with a 9-5 mon-fri pharmacy, no doctors, no hospital for a couple hours (I can't drive like this). Why does the nausea hit overnight?
The nausea can hit at anytime.
@@theofficialdrdan it's only ever hit me at night, it's that unusual? I managed to curb the worst of it with chewing on ginger root and drinking ginger tea.
@@Yvettep777 I'm sorry you got the side effects that bad 😔
Mine did go away after about 3 nights. And it was only in the night that I felt 🤢
I can highly recommend the ginger to help settle the worst of it - I chewed some ginger last night when I first felt the nausea after having my dose yesterday.
The nausea stopped completely after 2 pieces of ginger (about 1 hour) and didn't get any worse. And drink chamomile tea also. Since I wrote these comments, my doctor (he is TRAINED, LICENSED and QUALIFIED in both Chinese medicine and western medicine - he went to western medical schools in Australia and England) has called me and given me advice for dealing with the hell that is the side effects of this chemical.
Double check with your own doctor (your health needs are going to be different to mine) but mine says to eat plain crackers in small amounts, no sweet or fatty foods, drink ginger or chamomile tea.
Even though you may not feel like eating, the best thing you can do is eat plain, bland foods in small amounts and keep fluids up. Suggestions were: boiled/steamed rice, plain crackers, uncrystallised ginger, plain cucumber, apple slices, poached chicken and clear soup or clear broth (chicken, pork or beef).
Sip at water or tea, preferably herbal tea, but black and green teas are good too.
Here's the bit you have to talk to your doctor about: your injection site has an effect on how bad those side effects are - especially when you first start on this stuff or dosage is increased. My doctor told me to change my injection site.
I'm not going to say to where, because I'M NOT A DOCTOR, AND I'M NOT GIVING ANYONE ANY MEDICAL ADVICE.
THE ONLY ADVICE I'M GIVING IS NATURAL, WELL KNOWN (CENTURIES OLD) ANTI-NAUSEA TIPS AND FOR YOU TO TALK TO YOUR PRESCRIBING DOCTOR ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE. You can ask your doctor about temporarily changing your injection site to help with initial side effects.
I wish you all the best of luck, and every success with using ozempic. Let me know how you go with your doctor... and if any of the tips above work for you. My fingers are crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Ive had some nausea from osempic and a general disinterest in food. I have found that stating hydrated and keeping my blood sugar between 100 and 140 at all times has31lbs down so far.
Strangely, sometimes food tastes different. I made vegetarian bean burgers that tasted like cinnimon. I couldnt eat it. I tried a cape gooseberry that tasted like licking a battery. (First year growing them, so maybe they taste like like and batteries to everyone?) Im prefering very plain unseasoned foods. Lots of brotht soups.
I have heard others have similar experience. They went to the doctors and they said it is nothing to worry about. It is all how your body is processing the hormones, etc. It is just like being pregnant 😅
I was pretty nauseous the first week after starting Ozempic. I found a little club soda really seemed to help take the edge off.
What’s club Soda ?
Eat some raw ginger or Ginger gummies. That will clear the nausea immediately.
I get nausea and constipation from this medication, but it's right after I take it the first day you're nauseous, and then you feel okay.
I sometimes feel nausea...but it from my stomach emptying so slow. And when its empty...i get nausea
I’ve been on semaglutide for 2 months. I get occasional nausea. I’ve found that it’s actually worse when my stomach is empty. Once I eat or drink my protein shake, I feel better. I also only eat small amounts. Eating sugar (even natural sugar from fruit) on an empty stomach makes it worse too.
Thank you for explaining these details regarding the nausea. I have been searching on this topic because it's not made clear if I should take it on an empty stomach or with food on my stomach.
Now I understand that the nausea is brought on not by the food on my stomach but it could be my interaction OR because I ate too much prior to my stomach digesting the last meal I ate.
I need to eat small meals & from what I understand non-fried/greasy foods (which I rarely eat anyways).
Thank you so much! 😁👍
After a few hour of ozempic nausea started and when I woke up I’m having bad vomiting to where it’s making me tear up. I’m not gonna take a second dose. Hopefully this vomiting stops soon.
In my fourth week of wegovy, I got what I thought was food poisoning at the time Tuesday Sore throat and fever. I have been fatigued since then. I have otherwise been okay. It feels like a rock in my stomach. And my appetite is shyt. Today I went to .50. Please let the symptoms pipe down
I hope you're doing well!
I just started back on ozempic and I’ve been throwing up ALOT for 2 days
Follow up with your Dr!
I’m 14 weeks on Ozempic and on my second pen of 1mg and for the last 3 days in a row I’ve been getting sick. Not sure why the sudden change of vomiting? But I do want to battle through because of the weight loss!! Down nearly 30 pounds which is crazy 😅
eating nothing with make the nausea worse. make at least one meal liquid based like soup or replacement meal shake.
Hi is it normal to feel Iike you have something stuck in your throat after taking this? I felt it go to my thyroid it's making me gag.??
Take antigas medicine for nausea and vomiting before or after you eat. When I started taking ozempic I would have alot of nausea and vomiting and felt bloated. I started taking antigas since I felt so bloated whenever I started vomiting. Since taking antigas after eating I haven't vomited at all and nausea has really decreased.
First injection today, I immediately vomited profusely. Spent the last 6 to 7 hrs feeling nauseated and weak. No wonder people lose weight on wegovy 😅 the thought of food scares me now!
Side effects also depend on the dosage your doctor first prescribed you. I have heard some start at 7.5mg and that is exactly why the side effects are terrible. Doctors apparently (some) aren’t starting at the 2.5 loading dose and increasing every 4 weeks. This makes it so side effects are non existent or very minimal.
just found this video I day 2 into my first dose. yes I have mild nausea I like toast when I feel the nausea. it helps me
Hi Dr. Dan - I've been working with a weight loss clinic in Ottawa. I've been taking semaglutide for weight loss for 6 weeks now... .25 for the 1st four weeks and .50 for the last 2. I've been feeling pretty crummy with the nausea in genera. I actually find the nausea gets worse if my stomach is empty so I've been trying to do the smaller, more frequent meals. That makes me feel pretty food focused... not feeling like eating but needing to eat so I dont feel worse. Always thinking of eating/not eating! I've lost about 2 lbs in the last 6 weeks (this is after losing about 20 lbs on my own and then plateauing). I'm 52/female. I feel tired a lot/low energy most of the time. I have to say the docs at the clinic are pretty "transactional" - and since I finished the packaged program I paid for, I was told I had to wait 3 weeks before I could discuss my med concerns with the prescribing doc. So my questions are these: is it normal to need to eat more on semiglutide? Is there an average time it takes for nausea to wane as a side effect? If I am not able to get support from the prescribing doc, do you feel pharmacists are well equipped to speak to these newer meds? I would welcome you thoughts and any advice you care to share.
Most people are not eating enough to begin with. Eating more is OK and necessary to help manage metabolic adapation. It varies person to person when the side effects go away! It will really depend on the pharmacist!
Eating more or eating more often?
I find overindulging to be a problem.
And Ontario pharmacists are good.
I think their requirements might be more stringent than other jurisdictions.
Pharmacists study medicine, specifically. Doctors study the body, specifically, but have knowledge of which medicines help to do what.
If I have a question about a medicine, I’m inclined to trust a pharmacist who knows how the meds respond within the body. I hope you’re doing better!
How do u handle fatigue?
Is this Trulicity really working ? Nobody talks about the side effects.
Of note - significant nausea from Wegovy. Then... flank pain. Week 1. EDIT: Week 10. Much better. Don't eat fast or big portions. Use Meclizine.
