Hello dear
@Swimmy ,
Nausea and bloating are among the most common side effects of Ozempic, especially if you are on 1 mg. Usually, all the common side effects last a week or so. However, you may experience some of them during the whole treatment course
But it happens rarely. Don't worry!
I agree with
@4ngel. According to the official leaflet, the starting Ozempic dosage is 0.25 mg once weekly (for the first four weeks). It will help give your body a chance to get used to Ozempic. Then increase it to 0.5 mg once weekly for at least 4 weeks. If you still find it ineffective, you can boost your dosage to 1 mg once weekly.
