How Long Do Semaglutide Side Effects Last?
Thanks for this great question. These drugs were originally designed for diabetes but have found huge traction because they are incredibly effective at helping patients lose weight. They work by making you feel full and slowing down how fast your stomach empties. They mimic naturally occurring hormones. The most common side effects are nausea and stomach pain. These side effects are usually very well tolerated with most patients feeling better after about a week. Most patients who take these medications for weight loss say the side effects were more than worth the weight loss.
What should I do if I'm experiencing side effects?
If you're having side effects or have concerns of any kind you should contact your healthcare team. Most of the time things like Zofran or vitamin B12 can help to reduce some of these minor side effects.
