Our award-winning, trusted personal injury attorneys believe these drugs may cause serious stomach disorders. Read on to learn more.
Weight Loss Drugs May Cause Severe Stomach Problems
In recent years, popular diabetes and weight loss drugs have risen to superstar status. All over the world, people are taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and more to help curb their diabetes symptoms or lose weight quickly.
Novo Nordisk has made billions from the sale of Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus. Eli Lilly has done the same with Trulicity and Mounjaro.
However, these drugs can be extremely dangerous. They have the potential to stop the stomach‘s capacity to work. Essentially, these drugs can paralyze the stomach leading to a condition called gastroparesis.
Gastroparesis and Our Weight Loss Drug Lawsuit in Memphis
Gastroparesis means “stomach paralysis.” With this condition, the stomach can stop working entirely and cause severe health problems as a result.
We’re hearing some extreme reports from doctors and other lawyers, including:
Patients vomiting up whole, undigested food hours or even days after eating.
Food escaping into the lungs or impacting other parts of the body.
Children on these drugs showing up to the hospital severely malnourished as though starving.
Symptoms of stomach paralysis include:
- Vomiting undigested food
- Nausea
- Abdominal pain and bloating
- Feeling full after only eating a few bites
- Acid reflux
- Blood sugar changes
- Weight loss and malnutrition
Anyone taking these drugs should seek medical attention if they have these symptoms. And if hospitalized, you may be entitled to compensation.
