A MUM who took Ozempic has died after months of diarrhoea and vomiting, her devastated family have revealed.<\/p>\n

Trish Webster, 56, from Australia, was prescribed the diabetes drug off-label to help her lose weight ahead of her daughter\u2019s wedding.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

She lost two-and-a-half stone (16kg) on the drug and then Saxenda \u2014 another weight-loss medication \u2014 over five months, while suffering the constant symptoms.<\/p>\n

Trish collapsed with a \u201cbrown substance\u201d foaming from her mouth on January 16 and her husband did CPR on her but she died later that evening.<\/p>\n

Doctors said her cause of death was \u201cacute gastrointestinal illness\u201d and Roy believes the medications may have had a role.<\/p>\n

He told 60 Minutes Australia: \u201cShe went back a couple of times to the doctor saying she was sick and she had diarrhoea and nausea.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe went to the dressmaker to get the measurements. It was one big nightmare from there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking about Ozempic, he said: \u201cI never thought you could die from it. It's just awful. I didn't know that could happen to a person.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe shouldn't be gone, you know? It's just not worth it, it's not worth it at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ozempic, made by Novo Nordisk, is a diabetes drug that contains the active ingredient semaglutide.<\/p>\n

While intended to treat diabetes initially, doctors noticed patients were starting to lose weight when on it, and some began prescribing it off-label for weight loss.<\/p>\n

Previous research has shown semaglutide can help people lose nearly a fifth of their body weight after 68 weeks.<\/p>\n

It works by mimicking a hormone in the body that makes people feel full quicker, reducing how much they eat.<\/p>\n

However, known side effects can include gut issues like sickness, bloating, acid reflux, constipation and diarrhoea.<\/p>\n

Trish started taking the drug after being unsuccessful with dieting and going to the gym when trying to lose weight.<\/p>\n

She took it for three months before switching to Saxenda, which is also made by Novo Nordisk but contains a different drug called liraglutide that works similarly.<\/p>\n

Shortages of Ozempic have seen lots of patients switching to Saxenda in Australia.<\/p>\n

A Novo Nordisk spokesperson said: "Patient safety is paramount to Novo Nordisk and we work closely with the UK authorities to continuously monitor the safety profile of our medicines.<\/p>\n

"Gastrointestinal (GI) events are well-known side effects of the GLP-1 class. <\/p>\n

"For semaglutide, most GI side effects were mild to moderate in severity and of short duration. The gastrointestinal events led to permanent treatment discontinuation in 4.3% of patients. <\/p>\n

"GLP-1s are known to cause a delay in gastric emptying, as noted in the label. Delayed gastric emptying, nausea and vomiting are listed as side effects within the SMPC."<\/p>\n

They added: "We recommend patients take these medications for their approved indications and under the supervision of a healthcare professional. <\/p>\n

"Treatment decisions should be made together with a healthcare provider who can evaluate the appropriateness of using a GLP-1 based on assessment of a patient\u2019s individual medical profile. <\/p>\n

"We are continuously monitoring the safety profile of our products and collaborate closely with authorities to ensure patient safety, including adequate information on gastrointestinal side effects in the label."<\/p>\n
