Ozempic, as a medication, is considered to be quite safe overall. While gastrointestinal side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation are common due to Ozempic’s impact on gastric emptying, they are generally short-term and tend to improve within a few days or weeks of starting or adjusting the dose.
However, it’s important to be aware of potential less common but more serious side effects associated with the use of Ozempic. These include inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis), changes in vision, low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), kidney problems, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems, as well as the possibility of thyroid tumors or cancer.
Ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals who take Ozempic is of utmost importance, so it’s crucial to be vigilant about any unusual symptoms and promptly consult with a healthcare professional if any concerns arise.
