Diabetes, Type 2
"I started taking victoza February 2015 @the smallest dose 0.6. My a1c level was over 15.  By March my a1c level went down to 10. By May my a1c was 8.9  in sept my a1c level was 8.1. Today October is 8.0.  I lost a total of 15lbs From jan to now. At the lower dose had some nausea and diarrhea that subsided. By June I was at the highest level of the victosa. This caused serious diarrhea,nausea,vomiting,eggy burping and severe gas. I&#039;m got off victosa and symptoms went away but sugars increased. I&#039;m now trying farxiga lets hope this med does just as well without side effects. I loved what victoza did for me but side effects were to severe. One other note I also have IBS with direness which contributed to the severe diarrhea episodes"
