I had been on Victoza but couldn't continue because of the nausea. I was also taking Lantus. I started on Trulicity two weeks ago and had no nausea, have more energy and my blood sugars are in range. I no longer take lentos either.

This drug helped me to lose 5 lbs in one week. It controls my sweet tooth and evens out my sugars because I no longer feel the shakes when I don't eat on time but I still get headaches sometimes. I am happy with the outcome.

I have been using it for almost 6 months now. I have lost considerable amount of weight. Glucose levels are down very well. A1C down to 5.4 from 7.8. I use it with Metformin. I was on Bydureon previously it caused me a lot of bumps and skin reactions. Trulicity is a blessing and the ease of use is great!

Frist week on the pen. It seems great I am not having that craving for sweets. I don't feel as hungry. I believe it's going to be great. My blood sugars are down from 200 to 130's. Will get back in 3 months when I do the A1C.
