Hi everyone, I'm after Insight, experience and advice, I've been asked if I'd like to go on these Victoza injections. I'm currently on stigmatin (not sure how its spelt) and metformin 2 tablets morning 2 tablets night. I've read good things about this injection but also bad things a d I'm just wondering of anyone had had experience with this :) I'm unsure what to do. Any help would be much appreciated x
 
Hi Emma, can't help you, but someone else may be long shortly who can?
What was your last HbA1c result?
 
Hi thank you for your reply my last one was 6.4 emma

Hi Emma I would maybe ring the helpline on Monday, they will be able to advise you more on your query.
 
Hello @Emma19834

Welcome to the forum.

I agree with @Jodee - calling the helpline on Monday is probably a good option. You can call Mon-Fri during office hours
0345 123 2399

We’ve had a few members on Victoza/Liraglutide over the years, and you can read their experiences on these threads: https://forum.diabetes.org.uk/boards/search/32368160/?q=Victoza&o=relevance

The challenges seem to be nausea and bloating, but I don’t know how common a side effect that is.

Hope you get enough information to make a decision that’s right for you.
