Ozempic (semaglutide) is effective for weight loss and managing blood sugar, but it’s not free of side effects. Common issues include nausea, vomiting, constipation, fatigue, and in rare cases, pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. For someone with alcoholic fatty liver, careful medical supervision is essential, as liver health must be monitored closely.
Weight loss can support liver recovery, but Ozempic is not a cure. It's best to consult your doctor before starting and also work with a certified nutritionist to create a personalized diet plan that supports both weight loss and liver health

Ozempic (semaglutide) is a medication used to improve blood sugar control and support weight loss. However, since you have alcoholic fatty liver, it is important to proceed with caution. While some studies suggest that weight loss from medications like Ozempic may benefit fatty liver conditions, its use must be medically supervised—especially with liver involvement.
Next Steps
Please consult your hepatologist or endocrinologist before starting Ozempic. Alongside medical treatment, a personalized diet and lifestyle plan targeting liver health and gradual weight loss will be essential.
Health Tips
Avoid alcohol completely, follow a high-fiber, anti-inflammatory diet, and maintain regular physical activity. Medications alone cannot reverse fatty liver—nutritional intervention plays a crucial role. I'm happy to support you with a tailored diet plan.
