Ozempic Death Lawsuit claims are being filed by families impacted by an Ozempic-related death.
These lawsuits allege that Ozempic manufacturers failed to adequately warn consumers and healthcare providers about the potentially deadly risks and conditions associated with GLP-1 weight loss drugs.
Loved ones of family members impacted by these weight loss drug complications are seeking accountability and answers to prevent similar tragedies from affecting other families.
On this page, we’ll discuss the Ozempic Death Lawsuit, recent reports linking weight loss drugs to countless deaths, serious side effects linked to the weight loss drug Ozempic, the current status of the Ozempic Lawsuit, and much more.
Ozempic, used by countless people across the country to treat diabetes and lose weight, has been linked to severe gastrointestinal health issues.
Recent reports have connected Ozempic to fatal adverse events, with notable cases including sudden deaths linked to gastroparesis (or “stomach paralysis”), bowel obstruction, and, in rare cases, life-threatening conditions such as pancreatitis and gallbladder disease.
The Ozempic Lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania handles countless lawsuit claims from individuals who have suffered adverse health effects.
The Ozempic MDL (multidistrict litigation) is filed against Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, the manufacturers of weight loss drugs.
The Ozempic Lawsuit may also handle wrongful death claims related to the class of weight loss drugs known as glucagon like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1s).
Our law firm is currently accepting new clients for Ozempic Lawsuits, including family members and loved ones of people who have tragically passed away as a result of these weight loss medications.
If your loved one has tragically passed away due to adverse reactions related to taking Ozempic, Wegovy, or other weight loss drugs labeled as GLP-1s, you may be eligible to file an Ozempic Lawsuit and seek compensation.

We’re here to help you.
Reports indicate that Ozempic and similar weight-loss drugs like Wegovy and Mounjaro are associated with countless deaths across the United States.
According to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) FAERS database, zempic and other popular GLP-1 weight loss drugs, including Wegovy and Mounjaro, have been associated with a total of 162 deaths in the United States over the past six years.
These reports include serious side effects such as gastrointestinal complications, pancreatitis, and severe vomiting episodes.
While these adverse events are significant, FAERS data alone doesn’t establish a direct causal link between the medications and the reported fatalities.
Instead, it highlights potential safety concerns that may warrant further investigation into the drugs’ risks and benefits, especially given their widespread use and popularity for weight loss.
Among the adverse events reported, 94 deaths were linked to semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy), while the remaining 68 were associated with tirzepatide, used in Mounjaro.
These findings have sparked further discussions within the medical community regarding the need for comprehensive studies to better understand the long-term effects of these medications on patients’ health, particularly those using them off-label for weight management.
Recent studies and reports highlight that Ozempic, Wegovy, and other GLP-1 receptor agonist drugs are associated with serious health risks, including stomach paralysis, also known as gastroparesis, as well as other gastrointestinal issues.
Gastroparesis limits the stomach’s ability to empty properly, causing symptoms like intense vomiting, nausea, and abdominal pain.
One study analyzed the records of millions of U.S. patients and found that those using GLP-1 agonists for weight loss faced an elevated risk of not only gastroparesis but also bowel obstructions and pancreatitis.
Specifically, this study revealed that patients taking these drugs had three times the risk of stomach paralysis and a nine-fold increase in pancreatitis compared to those using other weight loss medications.
The implications of these findings are significant, especially considering the rapid rise in the popularity of GLP-1 medications for weight loss.
Given the severe nature of these potential adverse events, some researchers are calling for updated warning labels to ensure patients are aware of the risks.
As the number of individuals using these drugs continues to grow, understanding the full spectrum of potential side effects has become crucial​.
Potential Health Problems Linked to GLP-1 Agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy:
The FDA has updated the Ozempic label to address concerns regarding the risk of bowel obstruction, particularly ileus, a condition where the intestine becomes partially or fully blocked.
This change, implemented in 2023, aligns Ozempic’s label with those of related GLP-1 drugs like Wegovy and Mounjaro, which had previously listed this risk.
Ileus is noted as potentially life-threatening, and the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) has recorded 33 cases, including two fatalities, linked to GLP-1 agonists.
Although these adverse events are reported voluntarily and don’t prove causation, the growing reports have prompted additional label warnings to enhance patient safety.
Novo Nordisk has reportedly expressed commitment to working closely with the FDA, stating that gastrointestinal side effects are known risks of GLP-1 medications and are typically mild and temporary for most patients.
However, this label update aims to better inform patients of potential risks associated with these popular drugs, especially when used off-label for weight loss.
Ozempic manufacturer Novo Nordisk, as well as the manufacturer of other weight loss drugs Eli Lilly, are facing lawsuits from countless individuals who have developed severe side effects.
Ozempic Lawsuits allege that drug manufacturers Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly failed to adequately warn consumers and healthcare providers about the risks of conditions such as gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), bowel obstruction, and related digestive complications.
Ozempic Lawsuits argue that the drugmakers downplayed or omitted critical risk information on the labels, leading to unexpected and sometimes life-threatening outcomes for patients.
In response, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized these cases into the Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1 RAS) Products Liability Litigation (MDL 3094) in Pennsylvania federal court to manage the rising number of claims more efficiently.
The Ozempic MDL is moving forward under the supervision of Judge Karen Marston, following the unexpected passing of Judge Gene Pratter, who initially presided over the case when the Ozempic Lawsuits began.
The Ozempic mass tort litigation has gained momentum as additional plaintiffs have reported additional health conditions, including NAION (a vision-related condition) and fatal consequences.
If evidence relating to the medical and scientific issues is admitted into court, it could broaden the scope of injuries considered in the Ozempic MDL.
If you were prescribed Ozempic or other weight loss drugs under the GLP-1 class and subsequently suffered health problems, you may be eligible to file an Ozempic Lawsuit and seek compensation.

No, there is not an Ozempic Class Action Lawsuit.
As mentioned, Ozempic Lawsuits related to severe health issues filed by many patients are consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).
This means each plaintiff’s case remains individual rather than combined into a single lawsuit.
In a class action, a single case is filed on behalf of all affected individuals, who share any settlement or verdict equally regardless of individual circumstances.
Conversely, an MDL allows each plaintiff to pursue their case independently, meaning compensation is tailored to their specific injuries and losses while benefiting from shared discovery and streamlined pretrial proceedings.
This structure in MDL cases is often advantageous in mass tort cases where injuries vary significantly among plaintiffs.
Makers of the weight loss medication Ozempic have failed to properly warn patients about the serious side effects and risks related to these drugs.
As a result, countless individuals have suffered severe health complications, including stomach paralysis, bowel obstruction, and gastroparesis, which can lead to long-term damage and ongoing medical needs.
Ozempic Lawsuits claim that these side effects have dramatically impacted users’ lives, causing chronic pain, financial burdens due to medical expenses, and emotional distress.
The Ozempic Lawsuits aim to hold the manufacturers accountable for neglecting their duty to inform the public and healthcare providers of the full range of risks associated with these medications.
Plaintiffs are seeking compensation not only for current medical bills but also for the future expenses and lifestyle changes necessitated by these life-altering injuries.
If you’ve taken Ozempic or other weight loss drugs and suffered injuries, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit.
If your family member or loved one tragically passed away due to Ozempic-related health problems, you may be eligible to file an Ozempic Death Lawsuit and seek compensation for funeral expenses, emotional pain and suffering, and other relevant damages.

Losing a loved one to severe complications from medications like Ozempic is devastating, and gathering evidence is a critical part of the wrongful death lawsuit process to seek justice.
Family members who have experienced such a loss may face emotional and financial burdens, making it essential to document the journey and effects in as much detail as possible.
Evidence can be complex to gather and may require both personal records and insights from medical professionals, showing the profound impact of the loss.
By compiling thorough evidence, families strengthen their case, showing how the medication’s risks were hidden or inadequately communicated.
Working closely with an attorney can help in organizing these materials to ensure all aspects of the claim are covered.
Evidence to collect may include:
In a legal context, damages refer to the financial compensation awarded to plaintiffs for losses and suffering caused by a defendant’s actions, including wrongful death cases.
For families impacted by an Ozempic-related death, assessing damages helps quantify the financial and emotional toll of losing a loved one due to severe side effects.
This process seeks to acknowledge both tangible losses, such as medical bills and funeral expenses, and intangible losses, such as emotional pain and loss of companionship.
Evaluating damages requires thorough documentation to build a comprehensive picture of the family’s hardships and ongoing needs.
Damages to consider in Ozempic death claims may include:

No, Ozempic is not officially approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use as a weight loss medication.
Ozempic’s primary approval is for the management of type 2 diabetes, as it helps regulate blood sugar levels by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which also can promote weight loss as a secondary effect.
However, due to its effectiveness in reducing appetite and promoting fullness, many people have used Ozempic off-label for weight loss.
Separately, the FDA approved Wegovy, which contains the same active ingredient (semaglutide) as Ozempic, specifically for chronic weight management in individuals with obesity.
If someone is considering Ozempic solely for weight loss, they should discuss this with their healthcare provider to explore appropriate, approved options.
Ozempic, primarily known as a diabetes medication, has recently raised concerns over potential health risks in clinical trials, particularly related to gastrointestinal and cardiovascular health.
Some of the most notable health issues associated with Ozempic and similar GLP-1 receptor agonists include stomach paralysis (gastroparesis), delayed gastric emptying, and pancreatitis.
These gastrointestinal conditions occur due to the drug’s ability to slow down the digestive process, which can sometimes lead to significant complications like severe bloating, nausea, and vomiting, potentially requiring hospitalization.
In rare instances, semaglutide has been linked to more severe conditions such as medullary thyroid carcinoma and gallbladder disease, adding to the need for careful patient monitoring and informed decisions about treatment.
Clinical trials and observational studies indicate that while Ozempic’s GLP-1 class benefits individuals with diabetes, these drugs may also increase the risk of gallstones, a concern for patients using them primarily for weight loss.
Potential health risks associated with Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs include:
These findings underscore the importance of ongoing research and caution when using Ozempic and similar medications, particularly for those without diabetes who use it primarily for weight management.
Ozempic, originally designed to treat type 2 diabetes, has been adopted for weight management because of its ability to regulate blood sugar and reduce appetite.
The active ingredient in Ozempic, semaglutide, mimics the GLP-1 hormone, which promotes insulin release and slows digestion, helping to maintain low blood sugar levels.
This mechanism not only aids in blood glucose control but also fosters a feeling of fullness, which can benefit overweight or obese patients by reducing calorie intake.
Additionally, by slowing the movement of food and blood flow within the digestive system, Ozempic helps to prevent sudden drops in blood sugar, providing a stable environment that assists with weight loss over time.
People are filing lawsuits against the manufacturers of weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy due to severe and unexpected side effects linked to these medications.
Some patients have experienced life-altering health issues, including stomach paralysis (gastroparesis), severe nausea, and bowel obstruction, which were reportedly not adequately warned about on the drug’s labeling.
Additionally, recent reports highlight a concerning number of cases involving vision loss (specifically Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION)) and even fatalities that plaintiffs claim were not sufficiently disclosed by the companies.
Families and patients argue that Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, the companies behind these drugs, failed in their responsibility to provide adequate warnings about these serious risks.
These lawsuits seek compensation for the pain, suffering, medical costs, and in some cases, wrongful death claims associated with the use of these medications.

They helped my elderly uncle receive compensation for the loss of his wife who was administered a dangerous drug. He consulted with this firm because of my personal recommendation and was very pleased with the compassion, attention to detail and response he received. Definitely recommend this firm for their 5 star service.
When I wanted to join the Xarelto class action lawsuit, I chose TorrHoerman Law from a search of a dozen or so law firm websites. I was impressed with the clarity of the information they presented. I gave them a call, and was again impressed, this time with the quality of our interactions.
TorHoerman Law is an awesome firm to represent anyone that has been involved in a case that someone has stated that it's too difficult to win. The entire firm makes you feel like you’re part of the family, Tor, Eric, Jake, Kristie, Chad, Tyler, Kathy and Steven are the best at what they do.
TorHorman Law is awesome
I can’t say enough how grateful I was to have TorHoerman Law help with my case. Jacob Plattenberger is very knowledgeable and an amazing lawyer. Jillian Pileczka was so patient and kind, helping me with questions that would come up. Even making sure my special needs were taken care of for meetings.
TorHoerman Law fights for justice with their hardworking and dedicated staff. Not only do they help their clients achieve positive outcomes, but they are also generous and important pillars of the community with their outreach and local support. Thank you THL!
