Do I Qualify for the Ozempic Lawsuit?

Who Qualifies for the Ozempic / GLP-1 Lawsuit?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you meet the following general criteria:

Primary Requirements

1. You used a GLP-1 medication — Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Trulicity, Saxenda, or Victoza.

2. You suffered a serious injury — You were diagnosed with one or more of the following:

   • Gastroparesis (stomach paralysis)
   • Intestinal or bowel obstruction
   • Pancreatitis
   • Gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy)
   • Severe kidney injury
   • Hospitalization for persistent vomiting

3. The injury occurred during or after using the medication

Factors That Strengthen Your Case

• Hospitalization — You were admitted to a hospital or ER due to side effects
• Surgery — You required surgical intervention (bowel obstruction surgery, gallbladder removal)
• Ongoing condition — You continue to suffer from gastroparesis or other injuries after stopping the medication
• Prescription records — Documentation showing which drug was prescribed and for how long
• No prior history — You did not have the condition before starting the GLP-1 drug

Common Questions About Eligibility

I only used the drug for a short time — do I qualify? Possibly. Some patients develop gastroparesis or pancreatitis even after brief use. The key factor is whether you suffered a qualifying injury.

I used it for diabetes, not weight loss — does that matter? No. Eligibility is based on the drug used and the injury suffered, regardless of why it was prescribed.

I stopped using it and my symptoms went away — do I qualify? If you required medical treatment, hospitalization, or suffered significant harm during use, you may still have a claim even if symptoms eventually resolved.

My doctor said my nausea was a "normal side effect" — is that gastroparesis? Possibly. Many cases of drug-induced gastroparesis are initially dismissed as common nausea. If you experienced persistent vomiting, inability to eat, significant weight loss, or bloating lasting weeks or months, discuss this with an attorney.
