On this page, we’ll discuss the benefits of hiring an Ozempic Lawyer, how Ozempic Lawyers can help individuals file lawsuits against pharmaceutical companies responsible for manufacturing these weight loss drugs, the severe side effects associated with medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, and much more.
Ozempic, initially developed and approved as a diabetes medication, helps control blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone.
In the past few years, Ozempic has been widely popularized as a weight loss drug due to its effect of delayed gastric emptying and feeling of fullness.
This off-label use has skyrocketed, with over 9 million prescriptions written by fall 2023, and another report from May 2024 found that approximately 13% of U.S. adults have used GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic.
The surge in demand has been so significant that the FDA has listed Ozempic on its Drug Shortages List.
Despite its popularity, the widespread use of Ozempic has brought to light several severe side effects, including gastroparesis, or stomach paralysis.
Numerous lawsuits are now being filed against the manufacturer of Ozempic and Wegovy, Novo Nordisk, and Eli Lilly, which produces the GLP 1 medication Mounjaro.
The Ozempic Lawsuits allege that the drug manufacturers failed to provide adequate warnings about the potential risks of taking Ozempic and other similar drugs.
Our lawyers are accepting new clients for the Ozempic Lawsuit.
If you have suffered from severe gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) or other health complications after taking Ozempic or other semaglutide medications, you may be eligible to file a claim.
Contact our law firm today for a free consultation.
You can also use the chatbot on this page to find out if you qualify for the Ozempic Lawsuit instantly.
The potential health effects from Ozempic can profoundly harm a person’s health and quality of life, causing severe pain, discomfort, and other complications.
The Ozempic lawsuit is currently active, and people from across the country are hiring legal representation to seek compensation for their suffering and medical expenses.
Reach out to TorHoerman Law for more information on the Ozempic Lawsuit, how Ozempic Lawyers can help you, and more.
Severe gastrointestinal side effects reported by users of GLP 1 receptor agonist drugs have resulted in the organization of a mass tort lawsuit, with patients seeking compensation for medical expenses and other damages.
The Ozempic Lawsuit was officially consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL) in early 2024, as the Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1 RAS) Products Liability Litigation (MDL 3094).
The lawsuits claim that Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, the manufacturers of some highly popular GLP 1 weight loss drugs and diabetes drugs, did not adequately warn patients about the increased risk for severe gastrointestinal issues.
The MDL establishes a streamlined and efficient process for handling the number of lawsuits filed by those effected.
Injuries reported by plaintiffs include severe gastroparesis, cyclic vomiting syndrome, and bowel obstruction.
Legal action seeks to compensate these individuals for their medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
By pursuing an Ozempic Lawsuit, patients hope to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for failing to provide adequate warnings about the risks associated with these drugs.
Affected individuals are encouraged to seek legal help.

As mentioned, recent studies and reports have linked Ozempic and other semaglutide medications to severe gastrointestinal issues.
The increased popularity of these medications, driven by their off-label use for weight loss, has led to a surge in adverse event reports reported through the FDA.
Potential health problems associated with taking Ozempic and other similar drugs include:
Research conducted by the University of British Columbia analyzed health records from over 16 million U.S. patients and found that users of semaglutide drugs, such as Ozempic and Wegovy, had a significantly higher risk of developing serious gastrointestinal conditions compared to those using other weight loss medications.
Studies revealed that the mechanism by which GLP-1 receptor agonists slow gastric emptying to promote weight loss can, in some cases, lead to severe complications like gastroparesis.
The University Hospitals Cleveland Study analyzed 286,000 patient records, finding a 52% increased risk of gastroparesis in patients taking GLP-1 medications.
Another study led by Dr. Sharma used a large research network database and found that patients on GLP-1 agonists were 66% more likely to be diagnosed with gastroparesis than those not on the medication.
Stomach paralysis, or gastroparesis, can cause a range of debilitating symptoms that severely impact an individual’s quality of life.
Patients with gastroparesis often experience chronic nausea, vomiting, and persistent abdominal pain due to the stomach’s inability to empty its contents properly.
These symptoms can lead to severe malnutrition and dehydration, which can further complicate a patient’s overall health and require more extensive medical interventions.
Common symptoms of stomach paralysis include:
If you experience symptoms of stomach paralysis, it is essential to consult with healthcare professionals and seek medical attention immediately.
Prompt diagnosis and treatment can help manage symptoms and prevent further complications.
A gastric emptying study is a diagnostic test used to evaluate how quickly food leaves the stomach. This test is particularly important for diagnosing gastroparesis.
Patients experiencing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain may need to undergo this study to determine if delayed gastric emptying is the cause.
On September 27, 2023, the FDA required updated warning labels for semaglutide medications, including Ozempic and Wegovy, to include the potential risk of intestinal blockage, known medically as ileus.
This decision came after reviewing over 8,500 reports of gastrointestinal disorders related to these medications, with 33 cases specifically mentioning ileus, including two deaths.
Ileus is a condition where the intestines do not work properly, leading to a lack of movement in the bowels that causes food and waste to become blocked.
Ileus can result in severe abdominal pain, swelling, nausea, vomiting, and can lead to life-threatening complications like bowel perforation or infection.
Within the Ozempic Lawsuit, lawyers help claimants through the entire legal process, including gathering evidence, assessing damages, and other important steps to build a case.
Experienced lawyers will work to understand your story and inform you of your legal rights and options.
Your lawyer should be responsive, helpful, and do everything in their power to increase the chances of success in your case.
If you’ve suffered from health problems related to Ozempic or other medications, you may be eligible to file a claim.
Contact TorHoerman Law for a free consultation, or use the chatbot on this page for an instant case evaluation to determine your eligibility and start your legal journey today.
Gathering and retaining crucial evidence is essential for building a strong case.
Experienced lawyers can help victims compile necessary documentation to support their claims.
Evidence is vital to demonstrate the link between Ozempic use and the severe side effects experienced.
Potential evidence in Ozempic Lawsuit claims includes:
Severe side effects from Ozempic can profoundly impact a person’s life, causing ongoing health issues and financial burdens.
Damages in a lawsuit refer to the monetary compensation sought by plaintiffs to cover the losses and suffering experienced due to these side effects.
Compensation aims to alleviate the financial strain caused by medical treatments, loss of income, and the emotional toll of the condition.
An experienced lawyer can help you assess and calculate the unique damages in your case.
Potential damages in Ozempic Lawsuits include:
Drug makers have a responsibility to ensure the safety and efficacy of their medications, providing clear and comprehensive warnings about all the risks and potential side effects.
The Ozempic Lawsuit alleges that the drug companies failed to provide adequate warnings about the severe gastrointestinal risks associated with their medications, resulting in significant harm and physical suffering for many patients.
Our attorneys are currently accepting new clients for the Ozempic Lawsuit.

Taking Ozempic has been linked to several serious medical conditions, primarily affecting the gastrointestinal system.
These conditions include gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), cyclic vomiting syndrome, and bowel obstruction.
Patients have also reported experiencing severe nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain as part of the adverse effects linked to this medication.
According to reports, more than 9 million prescriptions for Ozempic and Wegovy have been issued in the United States.
The popularity of these drugs has surged in the past few years to treat obesity when they were originally used to treat diabetes.
Ozempic (semaglutide) is primarily used to treat diabetes by helping to control blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Ozempic works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which increases insulin secretion and decreases glucagon production.
This helps to stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.
While effective for diabetes management, patients should be aware of the potential gastrointestinal side effects and discuss these with their healthcare provider.
Ozempic is not only used to treat diabetes but has also gained popularity for its off-label use in helping patients lose weight.
The medication slows stomach emptying and promotes feelings of fullness, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss.
This dual benefit has made Ozempic a popular choice among patients seeking both diabetes control and weight management.
However, the side effects associated with delayed gastric emptying should be carefully monitored.
Scientific studies have linked Ozempic and other similar drugs to a heightened risk of gastrointestinal problems.
Despite its widespread use and popularity, many people consider Ozempic to be dangerous due to certain medical conditions and adverse events linked to Ozempic and other related drugs.
Adverse events, or unwanted side effects, are an important consideration for patients taking any medication, including Ozempic.
Common adverse events reported by patients taking Ozempic include nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, which can indicate more serious gastrointestinal issues like gastroparesis.
It is essential for patients to report any adverse events to their healthcare provider promptly.
Regular monitoring and communication with a healthcare professional can help manage these side effects and ensure safe and effective use of the medication.
