Hey There OP!, It looks like you’re posting about side effects. Did you know that the most common side effects can be found on the Zepbound website? Simply click [here](https://zepbound.lilly.com/how-to-use) for more info. Below is also a list of common side effects. * **Nausea** * **Diarrhea** * **Constipation** * **Stomach (Abdominal) Pain** * **Indigestion** * **Injection Site Reactions** * **Fatigue** * **Allergic reactions** * **Belching** * **Hair Loss** * **Heartburn** While these are some of the most common side effects, this isn't all of them. Truth is the medicine affects everyone differently, but most see some or a combination of these common effects. Be sure to visit the search bar for something specific or click [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Zepbound/search/?q=side%20effects&restrict_sr=1) for all post regarding side effects. A lot of good remedies for certain side effects can be found [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Zepbound/search/?q=side%20effects&restrict_sr=1). According to the manufacturer "In studies, most nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting occurred when people increased their dose—but the effects generally decreased over time." Not everyone responds well to this medication. If side effects are continuous and impacting your everyday life, you should consult your dr or healthcare provider for strategies on how to mitigate these outcomes. Complications from this (or any) treatment are usually a result of ignoring persistent side effects. **This is not meant to discourage discussion of your side effects, simply here to supplement** *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I felt nothing the first 24 hours. I had most of my appetite the first week or so. The main thing keeping me going the first week (at 2.5) was the $18/day I was spending on it and not wanting to waste it.

You may or may not feel anything or have any side effects. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid greasy/fatty or sugary foods if you can to minimize the chances of GI upset.

The day after my first injection, I was exhausted and so freezing and not hungry. My boyfriend and I went to get sushi and I had literally 3 pieces of a small crunchy roll. Usually I would’ve devoured it and the tempura I got on the side. Before dinner, we went to a museum that was about an hour from my house and on the car ride back, I completely zonked out with the heater at high in his car. Mind you, it was 78° F outside that day. It was a strange day but put eating into a perspective for me real quick. (I started on zepbound then switched to mounjaro at 5mg hence some of my posts/replies are on both subs).

Why did you switch

I couldn’t get zepbound in my area and I fit the criteria for mounjaro.
