Ozempic prices dropping in the future?

1. There will be a lot more Ozempic horror stories then.

My doctor recently prescribed it to me after a similar medicine I had been taking for years was no longer covered by my insurance and then their first alternative was discontinued by the manufacturer shortly after I started on it...

I was hesitant because I heard the horror stories and didn't feel it was worth it all things considered, but it ended up essentially being the only medicine in its class at full strength that my insurance would cover.

I won't get into my story because this is already a long enough post, but within six weeks I had gone to the ER twice for Ozempic-related gastrointestinal issues and I'm still not fully back to normal after having been off it for a month. I have seen improvement, though, which is a good sign since some people's symptoms apparently never get better and they are left with lifelong side effects from it...
