I recently started using Victoza 18mg/3ml Inj Pen (Liraglutide) to manage my type 2 diabetes and I’ve been having some ups and downs. On one hand, I’m seeing improvements in my blood sugar levels and even a bit of weight loss, but on the other, I’m experiencing some side effects that are concerning. Has anyone else had similar issues, or has anyone managed to mitigate these side effects? I'm particularly worried about the potential for severe side effects like pancreatitis. Additionally, anyone else notice a decrease in appetite or any tips to deal with nausea and headache? Would love to hear from others who have been using this medication long-term.

I've been prescribed Victoza 18mg/3ml Inj Pen 3ml (3pack) to manage my type 2 diabetes. It's been a few weeks, and while I've noticed some improvements in my blood sugar levels, I'm also experiencing some side effects that have me worried. Has anyone else had similar experiences? I'd love to hear about your journey with Victoza and if you've encountered any of the more serious side effects. The information provided by my doctor seems vague, and I want to be fully informed. In particular, I am curious if Victoza can provide substantial weight loss as implied or are the results varied. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!
