Victoza.....anyone use it?
 

My doctor put me on Victoza along with Lantus solostar and it has had major effects on me not able to eat and really nauseous anyone else have this they have taken me off it but it seemed to help with my levels I have been struggling to get them under conditions since I was diagnosed 2 years ago

A lot of people here use Victoza.

It made me so sick I had to stop taking it.

I am on Victoza and it has brought my numbers down. I was in the mid 200 all the time and now I am right around 130

Yes, I take it. I've been on it since Nov 2011. So sick with it, but most symptoms did finally subside after 6 months. Numbers were better so didn't want to give up. But am starting now to worry about other side effects they are constantly warning me about in the pamphlets they give when renewing prescription. Does anyone have opinions, observations?

Read the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance.

I have been using Victoza since Jan 2012. No issues, has really brought my numbers down. Obviously depends on your carb intake but I am running around 130 average.

My doctor just started me on Victoza today. I have only been on oral meds so injecting is something new for me. Did my first injection and was surprised how easy it was. Just hope now that I will be able to tolerate it.

Using the Vic...
 

If you are on certaineds they may interact.
My wife was on it and Wellbutrin and caused the nausea and low blood sugar under 50-20. Almost killed her multiple times until her doctors coordinated and spotted the issue

Make sure all your prescriptions can be filled from the same pharmacy so their software can spot these issues (she used Walmart and cvs, now she only uses one)
Now everything works great. So good luck!

I used it almost two years.. Since I started to take insulin my dr didn't prescribed me with victoza.. Even thought I asked her to...
