Hi everyone. I recently started taking Ozempic on the advice of my doctor to better control my weight and sugar. So far so good, but I have a family holiday coming up and I'm a little worried. I usually allow myself a couple of glasses of wine at such gatherings. But now I don't know - can I combine alcohol and Ozempic? Has anyone else encountered this? Are there any real risks?

I also want to add - on Ozempic I almost immediately felt how much it affects my appetite and stomach. Once I drank beer with dinner and then felt sick almost all night. And before that I never had problems with alcohol. I think the thing is that Ozempic slows down digestion, and alcohol irritates the stomach.
Ozempic and alcohol is ok, but with great caution. It all depends on how your body reacts to the drug. Ozempic can lower blood sugar levels, and alcohol can too. Together, this can lead to hypoglycemia, especially if you drink it on an empty stomach. Plus, in the first weeks there may be side effects such as nausea and weakness, and alcohol will only intensify these sensations. If you are wondering how much alcohol can you drink on ozempic - here is a detailed explanation of what to pay attention to. Doctors usually advise no more than 1 glass for women and 2 for men, and not on an empty stomach. It is better not to drink at all at the beginning of treatment.
