HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED!
When you or a loved one is having serious digestive problems, vision changes, or any other complications after taking these medications, you should check with an attorney. You might be able to participate in emerging Ozempic® and GLP‑1 multidistrict litigations (MDL). That means your case and similar ones could go before one judge for more efficient pretrial proceedings. MDL consolidates discovery and motions to reduce costs, better avoid inconsistent rulings, and can often lead to settlement via representatives.
The Damages Claimants Are Alleging
- The drugs cause severe gastrointestinal injuries, including gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), ileus, and bowel obstruction.
- Manufacturers knew or should have known, from clinical data and adverse event reports, that these risks were serious and potentially permanent.
- Drug labeling and marketing downplayed or omitted the dangers that routine “GI side effects” could progress into debilitating conditions requiring hospitalization, surgery, and/or long‑term care.
- Patients and prescribers were not adequately warned, and many individuals would have chosen different therapies or more closely monitored what was going on had they known the true information.
Common Injuries and Symptoms Linked to Semaglutide
Gastrointestinal complications
- Gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) – delayed or stopped stomach emptying leading to chronic nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid fullness after only a few bites, bloating, malnutrition, and severe dehydration.
- Ileus and intestinal obstruction / blockage – impaired or stopped movement of food or waste through the intestines, sometimes requiring emergency hospitalization, NG tubes, or surgery.
- Persistent gastroenteritis and severe GI inflammation – repeated bouts of vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and pain, often lasting weeks or months beyond normal “adjustment” to side effects.
- Reflux and abdominal distress – acid reflux, abdominal fullness, cramping, and swelling, including episodes of vomiting undigested food eaten hours earlier.
Organ and systemic injuries
- Gallbladder disease and gallstones, sometimes leading to gallbladder removal or biliary obstruction.
- Severe dehydration and acute kidney injury tied to uncontrolled vomiting and diarrhea.
- Pancreatitis, including severe or even hemorrhagic/necrotizing forms, now reflected in updated warning language.
Psychological and body‑image effects
- Body dysmorphia and eating disorder from dramatic, drug‑driven appetite suppression, rapid weight loss, and distorted self‑perception, often extreme and unintended.
- Anxiety, social withdrawal, or shame stemming from chronic vomiting, GI distress, and sudden physical changes.
Vision and neurological concerns
- Vision loss and NAION (non‑arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy) – some claims allege semaglutide drugs increase the risk of sudden, sometimes permanent, vision loss in one or both eyes, often due to restricted blood supply.
Do You Qualify for an Ozempic® or Semaglutide Case?
- You used Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Rybelsus®, Mounjaro®, Trulicity®, Jardiance®, or another semaglutide/GLP‑1 drug.
- You were later diagnosed with gastroparesis, ileus, intestinal obstruction, severe gastroenteritis, gallbladder injury, pancreatitis, or another serious GI‑related complication.
- Your symptoms lasted longer than expected for an adjustment period. For example, persistent vomiting for four weeks or more, repeated hospital or ER visits, or surgical intervention.
- Your healthcare providers linked, suspected, or evaluated a connection between your condition and the use of semaglutide.

MDL stands for Multidistrict Litigation. When many people file similar lawsuits against the same defendant, a federal court can consolidate them before one judge for pretrial proceedings. This reduces costs, speeds up discovery, and often leads to settlement. Your case remains individual, MDL does not mean you lose control of your claim.
Every state has a statute of limitations, a deadline by which your claim must be filed. In Nevada, the window is generally two years from the date you knew or should have known your injury was connected to the drug. Do not wait. Cases are being filed nationwide right now and waiting risks losing your right to compensation entirely.
No. Maddox & Cisneros, PLLC handles these cases on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
