Stomach versus thigh injections: worse gastrointestinal side effects on weight loss meds?

[AmusedLemonFatball]

Does anyone else have bad gasto issues when injecting in the stomach? Iv been on 2.5mg for 3 months and finally moved to 3.75 before I go to 5. I usually inject in my leg but for some stupid reason I decided to inject in my stomach.

Ate too late last night which has caused me so much pain all day. This morning I genuinely thought I was dying lol.

iv had diarrhoea all day and horrific trapped gas.

really hoping if I inject in my leg again on Monday il be ok. 🥺

Following - exact same query here!

Isn’t it more likely to be the increase in dose rather than the injection site?

I can't believe injection site makes a difference. It all goes in your body and if it did Eli Lilly would have reported on it by now.

Probably just that you went up to 3.75, I was super rough with diarrhoea when I went up.

I inject into my stomach and thigh. I don’t get any more/different symptoms depending on the site. It will be the increase of dose.

My semi research does show it makes a difference. It’s absorbed faster in the stomach

How can were subcutaneous injection site make a difference? Isn’t the change of dose more likely.

It will be the increase in the dose not the injection site

What did you eat? You’re not even on a full lowest dose yet, which is 5, so it’s likely whay you ate.

It will be the increase in dose, it's happened before to some who move up. Also fatty foods or heavy carbs can do that
