I started on 0.25mg like the doctor said, then I went to 0.75mg now I'm on 1.0mg and still haven't lost much weight at all! I know my age and hormones doesn't help but just want to know if this is normal? Has anyone got any ideas as well? Many thankyous in advance!!!😁

    I am on it and it's to get my blood sugars down. I'm still on the 7.5mg but that might change on Thursday weight loss not as fast as the injections would be but GP said jabs are nasty. It is still a slow process.

    It does make me feel ABIT sick but as I've gone up in dose that has lessened. Although it gives me wind and really bloated tummy. Let me know how I get on please. I'm so grateful and I'm almost too scared to ask to go up a dose. Thanks!😘

    My son is on it and has lost 10kg. It gave him indigestion for a while but pepto bismol sorted that after trying a few other things first.

    He loves not being hungry all the time.

    It was slow to start with and he seems to have hit another plateau at the moment but the difference is visible and his snoring is greatly reduced.

    If he had exercised as well it might be going faster but separating him from his computer is just about impossible.

    He only increased the dose very slowly because he was nervous about side effects but is now on the 1.7mg dose. He didn't get any extra side effects when he went up to this dose. The worst were earlier, although it might have had a lot to do with eating inappropriate things. He learned that lesson after being sick from eating sweets and cake. I don't think he will do that again!!

    He hates needles usually but the ones on the pens don't bother him.
