The woman alleges that she was told by the doctors that "she will never have a solid bowel movement again for the rest of her life".
A woman who was prescribed Ozempic has been informed by doctors that she will endure lifelong pain and will no longer have solid bowel movements. The unidentified woman is among numerous people who have filed legal actions against Novo Nordisk, the manufacturer of Ozempic. They claim that they were not adequately informed about the drug's severe side effects and now suffer from lasting injuries.
The woman alleges that she was told by the doctors that "she will never have a solid bowel movement again for the rest of her life" after she was hospitalised with a "life-threatening bowel injury" in January 2023, just months after starting Ozempic in October 2022.
All plaintiffs claimed the jabs caused gastroparesis - a rare condition that affects the spontaneous movement of the stomach muscles, the New York Post reported.
