Has Anyone Been Put On OZEMPIC For Their Diabet3s Type2? If Yes, Would You Like To Share Your Experiences?
I am on it. The goal of Ozympic is to help the body produce more insulin and to make the body more receptive to insulin, meaning a lowering of insulin resistance. If your body is both making more insulin and that insulin is working better, then you should see lower blood sugars. It can, but doesn't for everyone, work on making you feel more full after a meal, curbing the appetite, reducing the work needed to be done by the insulin. This is done by food not leaving the stomach as fast as normal and getting moved on down the line as quickly. These combine to combat high blood sugars too. It also can have some positive impact for the heart. The drug is used to treat diabetes and its effect on the heart and rate of digestion are considered secondary effects or "off label" use. Biggest side effects are bowel issues with constipation, this occurs mostly due to food sitting in the stomach longer. Higher dosages for people already prone to diarrhea can occur. It can also make people tired and produce nausea, these are seen mostly when someone first starts with the medication. It can work, but diet must still be the first line of treatment. With food options that exist today it is easy to put too many calories and carbs into the body.
I started Ozempic and only took 1 shot. I was too tired to even function at work. Constantly felt nauseated and had a dull headache for the entire first week Also had a bout of stomach cramping that hurt so bad it made me break out in a sweat every time it came on Felt almost as bad as labor pains I have not taken anymore Ozempic since. I still take Metforman..... as of now that's all. Waiting to see my Dr
