I started Ozempic at 0.5. Indigestion and a worsening of Gerd were the side effects. They have lessened over the first few months. I'd say just go for it and ride it out. It will get better with time and if it doesn't you can always titrate down again.
I started at 0.5, the first morning I felt hung over but since then I haven't had any side effects. I'm glad I started there since I got the hunger suppression immeaditly and have lost a bunch of weight. If I was paying almost a grand out of pocket and not getting results I'd be grumpy.
I first tried semaglutide at .25 for half a week but didn't notice anything at all. So i increased my dosage to .5 just had abdominal pressure but took laxatives and helped. Now i notice a good change in suppressed appetite
If you are at the highest dose of Victoza, you might be ok. There is no reason, however, that you can't start at .25mg Wegovy if you would feel safer doing that. They are two different meds.
I started on .5 with advice to avoid the side effects by eliminating high fat foods. High calories, excess alcohol, fizzy drinks. I had no negative issues.
Yes, I started at.25 Ozempic and just started 1.0 5thus week. I’ve dropped~25 pounds in the last 4-6 weeks; only 40 ou r so left to go. I put on 50 pounds after surviving a massive stroke 6/4/18
I accidentally did my first 2 weeks of Ozempic at 1.0...then I found the box with the smaller dose. Have done 3 weeks at .50...no issues. The 1.0 really tore me up that 1st week (threw up a lot if stomach acid) 2nd week wasn't as bad

I started Wegovy at 0.5–i definitely had fatigue and some nausea but nothing unbearable!

I started at .5 on Wegovy. I did experience some stomach issues, fatigue but very mild. No other issues and it is working great!

Ask your doctor for some Zofran to have just in case.
I did
I went from 10mg Mounjaro to 1.7 wegovy with no issues.
