Mounjaro Side Effects

It has come to our attention that some users of Mounjaro, a famous self-injected drug used to treat Type 2 diabetes, have complained of serious side effects. One of the most common Mounjaro side effects is gastroparesis, a scientific name for "paralyzed stomachs." The biggest issue here is that Eli Lilly, the manufacturer of Mounjaro, did not disclose the potential side effects of this drug to consumers.

As a result, many people continued taking the injection without truly understanding the risks involved. CNN reported that one victim "suffered from severe vomiting, gastrointestinal burning, stomach pain, and was hospitalized several times." If you or a loved one has experienced any of these side effects or anything along those lines after using Mounjaro, tell us about your case; you may be eligible for compensation. 

FAQ

    What Is Gastroparesis?

    Gastroparesis refers to a medical condition that affects the normal movement of muscles in the stomach. This disruption in the stomach causes delayed emptying of its contents into the small intestine. The term "gastroparesis" comes from "gastro" (meaning anything related to the stomach) and "paresis" (meaning weakness or paralysis).

    What Are Some Common Symptoms of Gastroparesis?

    Individuals suffering from gastroparesis have experienced a wide range of symptoms. Some of the most common include:

    • Nausea and vomiting, especially after eating. 
    • Early satiety ,meaning, they feel full after consuming only a small amount of food.
    • Bloating and constipation due to the delayed emptying of the stomach.
    • The backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus, causing heartburn and GERD symptoms.
    • Mild to severe abdominal pain, which can be intermittent or chronic.
    • Disruption of blood sugar control as the timing of food absorption becomes unpredictable.
    • Inadequate nutrient absorption due to delayed stomach emptying can lead to malnutrition and unintended weight loss.
    • Reduced appetite due to the discomfort and symptoms associated with gastroparesis.

    I Have Been Using Mounjaro for a While. Do I Have a Case Against Eli Lilly?

    When you buy such a drug, you hope that it will serve its purpose, which is managing type 2 diabetes in this case. Like any other drug in circulation today, you may experience some side effects. That's totally normal. What's abnormal is the manufacturer's failure to disclose these side effects. 

    They do this knowing that you wouldn't purchase their products if they disclosed the harm involved in consuming them. In other words, they put profits over human lives.

    Think about it this way: would you purchase a product if you knew it would cause you more harm than good? You wouldn't. 

    Eli Lilly knew that the use of two key ingredients - semaglutide and tirzepatide – in this drug would increase the risk of stomach paralysis. But they didn't disclose this information to consumers. That, right there, is one of the reasons you may have a valid case against them.
