Diabetes, Type 2
"I have been on Victoza since 11/19/10 after trying unsuccessfully to take both Metformin and the extended release version; and Glipzide. The side effects for these were terrible headaches, gastric upset. i.e. nausea and diarrhea. So far, Victoza is working really well. I am still on 0.6 mg. once a day and my fasting blood sugars are down from 165 to 185 to between 95 to 120. At my next appointment we will be talking about increasing the dosage and best of all, I have lost 14 pounds and I feel so much better then I did."
