Most people get some GI upset, especially while titrating up. Here's the full list — common and serious — plus the boxed warning worth actually reading.
Most side effects are GI — nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, headache, fatigue, indigestion. Worst right after a dose increase, easing at a stable dose.
Per Wegovy (semaglutide) prescribing information, Novo Nordisk. Not medical advice — call your prescriber about any symptom that worries you.
The most reported side effect. Slowed stomach emptying is the mechanism, not a sign anything's wrong.
Either direction is common, especially early on and after a dose increase.
Less common than nausea but listed. Persistent vomiting is a reason to call your prescriber.
Mild abdominal discomfort is common; severe pain that won't go away is not — see below.
Reported by a meaningful share of patients in trials, usually mild.
Redness or soreness where you inject. Rotating sites reduces this.
Wegovy carries a boxed warning: semaglutide caused thyroid C-cell tumors in rodent studies, and it's not known if this occurs in people. Do not use Wegovy if you or a family member has had medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). This list is not exhaustive — read the full prescribing information and ask your prescriber about anything unclear.
Tag nausea, headaches, or anything else against the exact dose and day it happened.
