Side Effects for Wegovy (semaglutide)
Nausea, constipation, headaches, decreased appetite, bloating. Note: I already have chronic constipation and GI issues. Wegovy worsened those issues somewhat but it is tolerable.Side effects show up after I do my shot weekly but go away throughout the week.Side effects very bad on 1 mg, had to go back down to .5mg. Make sure to eat something heavy before shot to limit side effects
Has helped me lose weight without any other lifestyle or diet changes.Auto injector is easy to use
Unlike Ozempic, I get terrible vomity like burps in the night, this scare me. Doesn't seem to matter what I eat. I don't feel it gives me as much weight loss as easily as Ozempic, but it does let me sleep better when not having acid reflux. I sometimes feel really down on this drug. Also, my jjoints and body feel more sore and maybe I did have a blot clot? I showed my doctor it but he didn't seem worried.
Even after 4 months, I have persistent gas on Wegovy, mostly burping and acid reflux. If I could afford to stay on Ozempic I would, but my A1C is almost back to normal and all my other vitals were good as well after a few months on Wegovy.
My doctor recommended 3 mg tablet per day. I would not inject. The co-pay is very high so haven't started taking it yet, but wanted to see if there is a way get a discounted tablet. These reports kind of scare me so I will take smaller dose and build up to 3, depending. IF I can find payment method.

After 3 days of taking experienced Extreme dizziness, nausea, vomiting, headache, nightmares, insomnia, sound hallucinations, shortness of breath, heart flutter, horribly bad anxiety.
Tried all SSRI's and newer SNRI's...Zoloft is superior in every way. This drug I will take for the rest of my life. It is truly life changing. I stopped taking it a year ago just to see if my mind had 'healed' but I was a mess!! Will never try that again!! Also,get the Greenstone generic brand, it's made by Pfizer on the same manufacturing line as real Zoloft, so you can get the real pill for $9.99 for 3 months at some pharmacies!! Ask your pharmacy to order it if they use any other brand!! Don't use Teva or Ranbaxy or Northstar etc. generics there is a difference, trust me! You can't beat this stuff!! The original and best!!
Sinus pressure, post nasal drip.
Disturbing/Vivid Dreams, Night Sweats, and Incontinence. My does recently went up 50mg and my eyes are killing me. I had to buy eye drops, but they wear off quickly. I don't know if I can handle the dry eye.
Tenitis, headaches, and wierd visual stuff when I turn my head like the world has to catch up to it or something if I miss a dose. Also I guess you would call it anxiety.
I know there are a lot of negative comments here, but it really is trial and error for some people. This drug has brought my diastolic blood pressure down within one week from 107 to 80 as of this morning.
major weight loss, cold hands and feet, major fatigue, overall general feeling of "sick", lumps in breast, vaginal bleeding, vomitting, panic attacks, this medication made me feel so horribly sick that I thought I was dieing!!!
2nd degree burn with cellulitis
I see from a lot of comments that other users have experienced this as well and seems like it didn't work out. Im on a trial for 6 weeks so if this feeling doesn't disappear I am going to tell the doctor.
Not worth it! Took my last one today.
