Anyone taking or a got any thoughts on Victoza? I started on it just over a week ago and had no bad side-effects so far. But I have been bit worried about all the negative stuff written about it on the internet.

Hello Sweetguy,

I've been on Victoza for 18 months. I haven't suffered on real side effects apart from occasionally feeling over full and 1 stone weight loss! Unfortunately my HbA1c has steadily increased resulting in me starting ok insulin a couple of weeks ago

I've been on it for nearly a fortnight now. Threw up quite badly two days in and have the runs today. Apart from that I've got a pretty persistant background sicky type feeling.

Really hope it subsides soon...

BG averaging between 7 and 8 though.
