‘Weight-loss drugs have exploded in popularity over the last year, with people filling social media with their success stories. But these medications come with potential risks — and some are more serious than others.
As drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound become household names, there is an increasing number of testimonies from former patients about a range of complications they've experienced while taking the medications. Stomach paralysis, gastrointestinal illness and suicidal thoughts are just a few of the problems patients have dealt with.
Here are their stories, along with information from doctors regarding who is most at risk — as well as how to help lower the odds you'll encounter this as well.’
Joanie Knight told CNN that she was diagnosed with severe gastroparesis, aka stomach paralysis, after taking Ozempic. (Gastroparesis is a condition that slows or even stops the movement of food from your stomach to your small intestine, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain and vomiting, according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases).
“I wish I never touched it. I wish I’d never heard of it in my life,” the 37-year-old from Angie, La., said. “This medicine made my life hell. So much hell. It has cost me money. It cost me a lot of stress; it cost me days and nights and trips with my family. It’s cost me a lot, and it’s not worth it. The price is too high.” Knight said her doctor suspects her condition was either caused by the medication or exacerbated by it.
Wegovy and Ozempic: Scientists raise alarm over potentially deadly side effect from celeb-favorite fat-loss drugs that may have been MISSED in trials; Researchers warn Wegovy and similar drugs
‘Medical experts are warning that Wegovy and similar fat-loss shots may cause a potentially deadly side effect overlooked in trials. The blockbuster drugs work by mimicking the effects of GLP-1, a hormone that slows the movement of food through the intestines – making a person feel full for longer.
I just don't know why anyone thinks that taking a drug will benefit them in any way, especially a drug that is touted to be a weight loss miracle. Idiotic. Just more bull shit from evil drug companies that do not give a shit about anyone who takes their crap, they don't care what it does to people, or if they die, they ONLY care about the money.
For weight loss, I try to cut back sugar intake, eat a little less and take walks. If you want to go gung-ho, add some weight lifting and exercises to a routine.
