A woman is suing the makers of Ozempic and Mounjaro, alleging the companies have 'downplayed' the severity of side effects caused by the medications and asserting she was “severely injured” from taking them.
Jaclyn Bjorklund of Louisiana accuses Novo Nordisk, the maker of Ozempic, and Eli Lilly, which makes Mounjaro, of failing to warn — or adequately warn — of all the possible adverse side effects from using the medications, including the risk of gastroparesis, also known as “paralyzed stomach.”
Bjorklund hasn’t yet been diagnosed with gastroparesis, Paul Pennock, an attorney for the firm representing the woman, told reporters on Aug. 2. But he noted her symptoms are “indicative of” the condition. “Patient safety is of utmost importance to Novo Nordisk,” she said. “We recommend patients take these medications for their approved indications and under the supervision of a healthcare professional.”
