I've been prescribed the above to self inject once a week starting tomorrow.

Has anyone used this at all? I'm starting low dose for two weeks and then increase the doseage.

Thanks

Regards

Dave

Well I've completed two weeks on this stuff without any side effects or mishaps.

This Sunday coming I will start on the increased doseage to 1.5mg. Hopefully I will have the same results re side effects etc.

I was on it for 16 wks. It lowered my blood sugars fab but made me poorly. I couldn't eat for the first 4 wks of nausea, i also had dizziness. Once I was able to eat my stomach didn't empty which caused reflux problems. It also caused me anxiety and depression issues.

I started straight away on 1.5mg.

It works for many but unfortunately it wasn't for me .
