Ozempic gastroparesis

Many people have gotten off insulin and/or lost significant weight thanks to Ozempic. This is the brand name of a drug with semaglutide as the active ingredient and has been prescribed to many patients struggling with diabetes. Semaglutide is also the active ingredient in Wegovy. This is the brand name for a similar medication that’s essentially a higher-dose version of Ozempic and is intended primarily for individuals looking to lose weight.

However, like most other prescription medications, Ozempic and Wegovy have their fair share of side effects and issues. One of the most publicized and unpleasant is gastroparesis, which has led to some legal action that I wrote about last year. Then in July 2024, a study published by JAMA Ophthalmology indicated a possible link between semaglutide and nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic nerve neuropathy. Let’s take a closer look at this study and what it could mean if you or someone you know is taking Ozempic or Wegovy.

I was involved in a case for the faulty hip replacements. Clay Hodges represented me. I can't say enough about how much he has helped me. Clay was able to win multiple settlements on my behalf with most of them being the maximum amount able to be awarded. Matt J.

Clay, thank you sir for making a disheartening experience at least palatable, you and your staff were honest, caring and understanding through the entire process of my wife’s hip replacements, while monetary settlements never make the pain and suffering end, it sometimes is the only way people can fight back to right a wrong. J. V.

We are absolutely pleased with how Clay Hodges handled my husband’s hip replacement claim. He always kept us informed of the progress. And, his work resulted in a settlement which we are extremely pleased. Thank you, Clay! Carol L. & Norm L.
