> Aside from its slimming effect on the wallet, semaglutide often causes other unpleasant side effects like nausea, heartburn, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, and headache, but they are usually mild and transient if the dose is started low and escalated gradually. “In my clinical experience,” states Macklin, “discontinuation of semaglutide because of side effects is generally nil.” Perhaps discontinuation from the physician side is generally nil, but I’ve been on semaglutide, and the side effects hit me hard and I discontinued the medicine from my end. I’m not the only person I know that did that - I’d say one in four in my weight loss/diabetes support group has gone non-compliant for long periods of time due to side effects.
