has anyone been able to get Ozempic? - Diabetes UK
Despite being on the weight loss surgery path via NHS, I've been unable to get initiated on GLP-1RA medication like Ozempic through my GP, even though I have Type 2 diabetes. However, I'm still interested in using GLP-1RA medication to help with weight loss.

Ozempic headaches | Diabetes UK
Well-Known Member. Relationship to Diabetes. Type 1. Jul 18, 2020. #3. Hi @Charlongo, welcome to the forum 🙂. Headaches are a common side effect of Ozempic, but like all side effects of drugs they should pass. Think of it like alcohol or nicotine- early encounters often result in vomiting, but those effects soon pass.

3 month Ozempic review - Diabetes UK
Ozempic had been mentioned before and I’d said no but decided to give it a go. I’ve now taken 0.25 for four weeks and then 0.5 for 7 weeks. I’ve been taking insulin consistently and testing blood sugars regularly, and my blood sugars have started coming down in the last 6 weeks, dropping gradually through that time.

Type 2 Diabetic & Ozempic | Diabetes UK
Hi I’m Maddy. Please take care with Ozempic….. I took Ozempic for high blood Sugars but after two years had to stop it. I lost my appetite and was feeling very weak. It’s very hard to eat a balanced diet when you don’t want anything. Good luck with the weight loss. Everyone’s different I know. I’m having eating problems still now.

ozempic - Diabetes UK
Relationship to Diabetes. Type 2. Feb 20, 2020. #7. I started ozempic a couple of weeks ago, so still on the 0.25 dose. However, the side effects of sulphur belching, flatulence and constant diarrhoea are severe. Do these alleviate over time, or is there any point in continuing with it.
