    Re: VICTOZA Hi, I though I'd post a quick update! I've been on Victoza now since 18th August. And I can honestly say its the best thing thats ever happened to me!

    Re: VICTOZA Hi, I have been on vicotza for a while now (think around 5/6 weeksish) and I haven't noticed any change in my hair (apart from the greys that keep sneeking in, but I know thats not Victoza). Maybe its worth popping along to the doctor, but I haven't heard of it as a side effect...

    VICTOZA Hi! I have just started taking liraglutide today (0.6). I have been on Byetta for 5 months and couldn't tolerate it. The nausea was permanent and horrendus, ended up going to bed at 8.30 every night! I am also taking metformin with the liraglutide. It was interesting to see that...
