Ozempic Burp: What is it?
This article discusses the side effects of popular weight loss medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro.
One common side effect, coined as “Ozempic burp”, refers to a specific side effect experienced by some individuals taking semaglutide weight loss medications Ozempic.
Excessive burping, often described as smelling like rotten eggs, is believed to be caused by the medications slowing down the digestive system and leading to a build-up of air. Other side effects reported include acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. Some patients also experience unusual dreams and excessive bowel movements, while others may have difficulty having bowel movements. It’s important to note that these side effects may vary from person to person and may subside over time.

I am 72 years old after ozempic started to have sulfur burgs smell , acid reflux at night and diarrhea 2 to 3 times at night mostly. And i feel good after that. No vomiting at all .. went to endoscopy and the doctor said you still have food in stomach after 8 hrs fasting. Had to reschedule
Hi Mr. Raymond did you have the second endoscopy done yet?
How did it go?
I restarted taking Ozempic and I am experiencing the same symptoms.
I’m experiencing all those symptoms including constipation, stomach pain, and vomiting after ozempic. I have all those symptoms right now as I’m typing this.
I’m so sick of these burps I don’t know what to do
The only thing that got rid of the horrible burps for me was Pepto bismol and lots of water. I also sipped peppermint tea because the taste from the burps is just awful. I hope this helps.
Re: the Ozempic burps: I have started having more frequent hiccup-burps. Are yours similar to one hiccup?
