The saddest thing is that these people trusted the wrong company to improve their health.
No one should ever have to suffer more health problems while pursuing a solution for their already-existing problems. But here we are, another classic case of big pharmaceutical companies putting profits over human lives.

Why are Wegovy Manufacturers Being Sued?
Numerous lawsuits have been filed against Novo Nordisk, the manufacturer of Wegovy. These lawsuits allege that the plaintiffs suffered gastroparesis from continuously using this drug for weight loss. Now, all fingers are pointing toward the use of semaglutide in the product.
The biggest issue here is that the manufacturer of this product knew about the effects of semaglutide. However, despite having this knowledge, they did not disclose it to consumers. If they had done so, many of these consumers would not have experienced such serious side effects. That’s because they wouldn’t have bought the product in the first place.
But to Novo Nordisk, profits were more important than disclosing the truth about their products. When such a big company prioritizes profits over the safety of its consumers, it puts millions of people at risk. Holding them accountable is the only way to stop them.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide refers to a medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. This drug treats Type 2 diabetes and obesity by mimicking the effects of the GLP-1 hormone in the body, which regulates blood sugar levels and appetite.
What Are the Risks Associated With Using Semaglutide?
While semaglutide is considered generally safe, it does have some side effects. The most common are nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. However, based on the lawsuits already filed, some of these side effects are extreme. One plaintiff claimed that she would vomit multiple times a day after using Wegovy. Another claimed that her “teeth fell out” due to the excessive vomiting.
What Damages Can I Seek if I Was Harmed by Wegovy?
The damages you may be entitled to will depend on the specifics of your case. Generally, plaintiffs can seek economic and non-economic damages. These include medical expenses incurred, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and punitive damages (only if the judge or jury deems it necessary).
