What the Ozempic & GLP-1 lawsuits are about

GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Trulicity work by slowing digestion, which is part of how they help with blood sugar and weight loss. For some patients, that slowdown has gone far beyond what's expected β€” leading to gastroparesis (a stomach that stops emptying properly), severe vomiting, bowel obstruction requiring surgery, and in some reported cases, sudden vision loss.

Patients pursuing these claims argue that manufacturers knew or should have known about the severity and frequency of these effects and did not adequately warn prescribers and patients. These claims are filed against the drug manufacturers β€” not against the doctor who prescribed a widely used, FDA-approved medication.

Who this typically applies to

Anyone prescribed a GLP-1 medication for weight loss or type 2 diabetes management who went on to be diagnosed with gastroparesis, a bowel obstruction requiring treatment, or sudden vision loss linked to the drug.

You may qualify if:

  • ✓ You were prescribed Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Rybelsus, or a similar GLP-1 drug
  • ✓ You were later diagnosed with gastroparesis, bowel obstruction, or a related GI condition
  • ✓ Your symptoms began or worsened after starting the medication
  • ✓ You required medical treatment for the condition
Claims like this are governed by state-specific filing deadlines. Reviewing your case sooner preserves more options β€” there's no cost to check where you stand.

Common questions

Does this cost anything?

No. The case review is free, and if a network attorney takes your case, they're paid a percentage of any settlement or award β€” never a fee up front.

Am I suing my doctor?

No. These claims are filed against the manufacturers of the medication, not against the doctor who prescribed an FDA-approved drug in good faith.

Do I need to stop taking my medication to qualify?

No β€” and you should never change or stop a prescribed medication without talking to your doctor first. This review is about whether you may have a claim for a past or ongoing diagnosis, separate from your current care.

How long does a claim take?

Mass tort claims are typically resolved over months to a few years, depending on how the litigation proceeds. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline once they've reviewed your case.
