[QUOTE="tony parrish, post: 116265, member: 24454"] [b]Re: VICTOZA[/b] I started this on Wednesday 13th Jan 2010, was told how to use the needles & how it works & given a nice booklet from the NHS nurse. The side effects were skipped over so I was quite suprised to find that loss of appetite (which in my case is good as I am large)was the start of a few others like wind, (both ends)dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, Constipation (ok after three days) , Abdominal pain upper(due I think to the wind) bile in the throat,& extreme fatigue.The wind side was the worst. I am still on the lower dose .6mg for another week after speaking with the nurse. After a visit to the docs to see if I could find out any more(no joy) & tried to get more needles & Victoza on pescription this drug is so new that they had trouble finding it to pescribe it.
