Nausea

Nausea (feeling sick) is a very common side effect on semaglutide (the medicine in Wegovy and Ozempic). It affects nearly half of people taking it at some point but remember, for most people it is brief and improves as their body gets used to the new medication.

Have smaller meals more often
An empty stomach or big meals can worsen nausea.

Choose gentle, cold foods
Opt for things like bananas, custards, jelly, tinned fruit, crackers, and toast.

After eating, try to remain upright

Try foods and drinks with ginger or peppermint
You may like to consider having peppermint tea.

In between meals, have cold, clear fluids
This can also help lessen the chance of headaches and constipation.
