The Victoza lawsuits are being filed because the manufacturers failed to inform users of the following possible health conditions:
- Gastroparesis - Victoza can slow down gastric emptying. However, studies have shown that this can cause partial or complete paralysis of the stomach, called gastroparesis. This is an untreatable disease that results in other health complications like nausea, vomiting, and chronic abdominal pain.
- Bowel obstruction - The slower digestion process can also cause food or bezoar formations to block the intestines. This can result in constant bloating, constipation, vomiting, nausea, and abdominal pain.
- Vision loss - Victoza can also result in a sudden and painless form of vision loss called non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).
