Amy Schumer once hopped on board the Ozempic trend, but the side effects were so intense she had to stop.
During a recent appearance on "The Howard Stern Show," the comedian, 43, opened up about her scary experience trying the medication for weight-loss purposes.
So, I tried Ozempic almost three years ago and I was like bedridden, I was vomiting and then you have no energy but other people take it and they're all good," she explained.

Ozempic, which is a semaglutide injection, was originally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, but the medication has increasingly been prescribed off label for weight loss, along with several other similar medications.
