Hi!!

Is anyone else having side effects with this medication?? If so would appreciate any info as been feeling sick for a week now and wondering if it will go off at all??
Thanks

There is a whole thread devoted to Byetta on the Medications section.

For me the nausea never went away - sorry!! You could try ginger tea or ginger capsules and injecting close to eating.

Same drug I beleive, I use Byetta - your Healthcare team should have given you an anti-sickness drug as you can have this side effect for some time, their should be info in the instruction leaflet. I t will depend on you and what other Medication you are on, however should dissappear as quick as it came, another side effect by the way is going to toilet alot followed by constipation, watch you don't become dehydrated - Hope this helps Regards WW
