Potential Ozempic Lawsuits Related to Gallbladder Injuries
Ozempic is a prescription medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, which means that it works by mimicking the effects of GLP-1. This hormone helps regulate blood sugar levels. Ozempic is injected once weekly.
What are the Side Effects of Ozempic?
Ozempic has several side effects, some of which can be serious. The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and fatigue. Other side effects can include:
- Gallbladder problems
- Pancreatitis
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
- Allergic reactions
- Headache
- Dizziness
If you experience any of these side effects, you should immediately talk to your doctor.
