Rybelsus Lawsuits
Why Are There Lawsuits Against Rybelsus?
Rybelsus is a medicine used to treat type 2 diabetes and help with weight loss. The active ingredient is semaglutide, the same ingredient as in injectable Ozempic and Wegovy. The main difference is that Rybelsus is a tablet patients take daily.
Some people who took Rybelsus had serious medical side effects. Lawsuits claim the company didn’t warn patients and doctors about these risks. These lawsuits aim to get compensation for the injuries and long-term medical issues caused by Rybelsus.
Does Rybelsus Cause Gastroparesis?
Rybelsus can potentially cause gastroparesis, also known as stomach paralysis. It’s a condition where the nerve and muscle damage stop the stomach muscles from pushing food through the intestines.
This leads to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and bloating. It can also lead to more serious side effects like malnutrition, dehydration, organ failure, and serious hospitalization.
Some medical studies have found that medicines like Rybelsus, also known as GLP-1 inhibitors, are associated with higher risk of gastrointestinal problems that can dramatically reduce a patient’s quality of life.
What Other Side Effects Are Linked to Rybelsus?
People who took Rybelsus reported other serious side effects, such as:
- Intestinal Problems: Many people had severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. These symptoms sometimes required hospital visits.
- Pancreatitis: This is inflammation of the pancreas and can be life-threatening. Symptoms include severe belly pain, nausea, and vomiting.
- Deep Vein Thrombosis: These are blood clots found deep in the body’s veins, usually in the extremities like the legs. The blood clot can break free and travel to the lungs or brain causing serious issues or death.
- Kidney Problems: Some people had kidney injuries or worsening kidney conditions. Signs include less urine, swollen legs, and feeling very tired. Dehydration from taking Rybelsus may contribute to kidney-related side effects.

When I say “they went to bat” for me…this Law Firm literally did just that. They persevered to bring the hard-nosed Manufacturer to settle and provide me some recompense for everything I had to endure which led to this suit.
