Switching to Zepbound from Wegovy?
I hope this post is ok here.
I got a call from my endocrinologist office yesterday saying that insurance denied Wegovy for me and wanted me to switch to Zepbound. I've been on Wegovy since November and am doing great. I never had any bad side effects, no nausea or vomiting, etc. I've lost 38 lbs and most of all I feel GREAT. Like I have depression and am actually happy on the Wegovy. I'm on 2.4.
It's going so great that I don't really want to switch, but I'm going to have to since I can't afford Wegovy without insurance. Has anyone done this? Did you have different side effects on Zepbound? I have health anxiety and am so scared of side effects, especially nausea and vomiting. I was so happy Wegovy didn't do that and now I have to try something new.
Any information you can give about switching would be greatly appreciated.
