[QUOTE="squishychickfi, post: 391777, member: 21652"] Hi I am also on Victoza - first time I was so sick from it I had to have anti sickness injections and then had to stop it. Second time I was given omeprazole to settle my stomach (which I am still taking) and then had to have 1 month on 0.6 When I went up to 1.2 I was sick again - so I took it on myself to take 0.6 twice a day (I know that means 2 injections - but the sickness was worse!) saw the GP last week and he said that was fine to do that - and touch wood it is much better - get the occasional sickness and upset stomach - but nothing that keeps me off work and the best bit is - I have lost a stone since Easter! Have the decreased appetite - delayed gastric emptying so feel full and sometimes don't want to eat anything - but found that I eat smaller portions - never seconds of anything - and don't feel hungry. Hope that you find a way to take it that suits you - but may be worth seeing GP about tablets to help with sickness or taking it twice a day in a smaller dose? Edited to say - my sugar levels are also better although I am waiting for my next set of official blood tests - the readings have been a lot better Hope this helps F [/QUOTE]
