Ozempic Overview

The prescription medication Ozempic is used to treat Type 2 diabetes. It contains semaglutide, which belongs to the class of drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists. These medications assist individuals with type 2 diabetes in managing their blood sugar levels. People also began taking Ozempic for weight loss. By the end of 2021, the FDA had received over 10,000 reports of adverse effects related to semaglutide, including numerous significant adverse events. Gallbladder and gastrointestinal conditions were linked to several of these side effects.

  • Taken semaglutide – Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or another brand
  • Used at least three months prior to March 2022.
  • Developed complications involving the gallbladder, bile ducts, or digestive system

Pain and Suffering

You may be able to receive compensation for the physical and emotional pain, discomfort, and limitations you experienced due to your gallbladder condition. This type of damages aims to compensate for the negative impact on your quality of life

Loss of Consortium

Additional Economic Losses

You may also be able to recover compensation for additional economic losses related to your gallbladder issues, including costs for travel to medical appointments, hiring help with household tasks you can no longer perform yourself, and any damage to property.
