Ozempic

Ozempic, a prescription medication produced by Novo Nordisk Inc. for Type-2 diabetes treatment, goes by the generic name semaglutide and falls under the category of GLP-1 agonists. These drugs imitate the action of a hormone naturally produced in the human body, known as glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). It is crucial to note that Ozempic is not FDA-approved for weight loss. However, it has gained significant popularity as an ‘off-label’ weight loss drug. Despite this, there has been a notable increase in reports of adverse gastrointestinal effects associated with Ozempic.

    Plaintiffs in lawsuits involving Ozempic contend that the drug may induce a hazardous condition known as gastroparesis. A case report detailing the link between this medication and gastroparesis is accessible in the National Library of Medicine database. Gastroparesis is a chronic ailment characterized by significant weakening of the nerves and muscles in the stomach wall, making it challenging for the stomach to effectively move food to the small intestine. Consequences of gastroparesis include intestinal blockages or obstruction, often resulting in symptoms such as nausea and diarrhea. It’s important to note that gastroparesis is incurable and can only be managed through medical and surgical interventions. Consequently, individuals who have used Ozempic (semaglutide) and subsequently experienced severe gastrointestinal issues like gastroparesis and stomach paralysis may have grounds to pursue a personal injury lawsuit.
