A woman who will suffer diarrhea for the rest of her life after using Ozempic is among dozens of patients who are suing the maker of the blockbuster weight loss drug over claims it left them with crippling stomach paralysis, a DailyMail.com investigation reveals.
Novo Nordisk, the maker of Ozempic and Wegovy, is facing lawsuits from patients across America who say they experienced extreme side effects which they were allegedly not warned about.
Thousands more patients have also come forward to claim they suffered adverse reactions to the drugs and attorneys say many more could join the growing legal campaign.
Most of the patients claim they suffered from gastroparesis, which is the medical name for paralysis of the stomach. The condition, which can be life-threatening, causes a build-up of food in the gut and symptoms include nausea, vomiting and severe pain.
DailyMail.com reviewed more than a dozen lawsuits filed since November by patients who were diagnosed with gastroparesis after using Ozempic and Wegovy, including some who suffered 'life-threatening' bowel injuries and face lifelong consequences.

The worst commercial ever made and that’s saying something.

Sympathy fading for anyone still trusting Big Pharma.
Poor Oprah
Helps lose weight and save on future dental work.
A win-win..
wow!
no wonder our doctor doesn’t recommend it
Someone once ask me about taking this drug. I said, no way, no how, never. I knew this was going to be just another drug that will injure or kill the ones who take it, and it looks like I was right.
who did not see this coming?
Plenty of lawyers willing to take the cases, too.
p
allegedly not warned

My dr prescribed metforman for me. Brought my A1C down under 7.0. No side effects
I’m so glad I didn’t take the bait.
That Jardiance musical ad is annoying to my household
Vomiting until the teeth are ruined?
I know bulimics who vomited for years. It takes a LOT of vomiting to wreck your teeth. How long are you puking every day before you think about stopping?
My wife had about four months of constant diarrhea when she was on chemo. Ozempic ain’t chemo. You would have to be a moron to allow that to continue.
These people don’t deserve payments. They are morons.
