I have bipolar and also type 2 diabetes. Recently started on Ozempic. Can it cause depression? Can my newly reduced blood sugar be causing me to be depressed?

If you are finding that it is giving you side effects. Please contact your GP.
Ozempic has had good reviews for those who struggle with their T2 diabetes control.

There are many reasons for depression, I have not heard or read about Ozempic doing this.
