I started taking Victoza in February, 2013. Since that time, my A1C has gone from in the 9s to 5.9! I've lost approximately 40 pounds and BG stays in the 90-110 range. I am SO upset because my insurance provider (BCBS/Express Scripts) will no longer cover this medication after 1/1/14. How can a person's health take second fiddle to a "business decision?" Disgusting.

I took Victoza for almost as year and went to my dr. because I was having breathing problems. He couldn't find a reason. Then I got extreme diarrhea a couple of months later. I stopped the Victoza for a week to see if that was the problem. It was and I also noticed my breathing got better. I went back on Victoza and both the diarrhea and breathing problems came back so I can no longer take it....

It has lowered my A1C from 7.4 to 6.2 in 3 months. It was a rough couple months getting use to this medicine. It made me very sick to my stomach and I belched like a sailor and the heartburn was bad. Zantac helped with that. I had to increase my does VERY slowly. It took me 3 months to be able to handle the full does. I have lost 10lbs. through the process. My appetite is definitely smaller than it was and hope to lose more weight.

My a1c dropped from 7.8 to 6.2 in six months along with using levemir. Curbed my appetite. Don't eat like I used to. I do experience more low blood sugars. Continue to lose weight.
