INTRODUCTION

Contact us today for a free case evaluation about the Zepbound lawsuit

​Zepbound (tirzepatide), manufactured by Eli Lilly. is an injection used for chronic weight management in some adults with obesity who have at least one other weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure. However, like Trulicity, like Ozempic, Saxenda, Wegovy, Rybelsus, and Mounjaro, Zepbound works by mimicking the effects of GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists), a naturally occurring hormone that stimulates insulin secretion and lowers glucagon secretion from the liver. As such it presents the same Zepbound side effects including gastroparesis, persistent vomiting, a paralyzed stomach, intestinal blockage, and even death. 

Zepbound, like, Trulicity, Rybelsus, Wegovy, and Saxenda, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. CNN recently reported that at least two people, one taking Ozempic and the other taking Wegovy, have experienced more than just minor stomach issues; these individuals have been diagnosed with gastroparesis, or "stomach paralysis​". 

​In addition, Dr. Andrew Boxer, a gastroenterologist at Gastroenterology Associates of New Jersey, is among several gastroenterologists who said he is seeing an increased number of patients coming into his practice complaining of side effects from these types of drugs. In an article on Healthline, Dr. Boxer continued stating that "I was seeing a tremendous amount of people coming in just with nausea, vomiting, and feelings of fullness, early satiety, just not feeling well … Universally these patients were on GLP-1’s." ​

Zepbound Lawsuits continued to be filed which have been centralized before one court by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation for pretrial proceedings and coordinated discovery. Those who took Zepbound and subsequently suffered Zepbound side effects may be eligible for a Zepbound Lawsuit and financial compensation.

what are the SERIOUS ZEPBOUND SIDE EFFECS?

According to the Company's websit, Zepbound may cause serious side effects, including:

• Severe stomach problems. Stomach problems, sometimes severe, have been reported in people who use Zepbound. Tell your healthcare provider if you have stomach problems that are severe or will not go away.
• ​Kidney problems (kidney failure). Diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting may cause a loss of fluids (dehydration), which may cause kidney problems. It is important for you to drink fluids to help reduce your chance of dehydration.
• ​Gallbladder problems. Gallbladder problems have happened in some people who use Zepbound. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get symptoms of gallbladder problems, which may include pain in your upper stomach (abdomen), fever, yellowing of skin or eyes (jaundice), or clay-colored stools.
• ​Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). Stop using Zepbound and call your healthcare provider right away if you have severe pain in your stomach area (abdomen) that will not go away, with or without vomiting. You may feel the pain from your abdomen to your back.
• ​Serious allergic reactions. Stop using Zepbound and get medical help right away if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including swelling of your face, lips, tongue or throat, problems breathing or swallowing, severe rash or itching, fainting or feeling dizzy, or very rapid heartbeat.
• ​Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your risk for getting low blood sugar may be higher if you use Zepbound with medicines that can cause low blood sugar, such as a sulfonylurea or insulin. Signs and symptoms of low blood sugar may include dizziness or light-headedness, sweating, confusion or drowsiness, headache, blurred vision, slurred speech, shakiness, fast heartbeat, anxiety, irritability, mood changes, hunger, weakness or feeling jittery.
• Changes in vision in patients with type 2 diabetes. Tell your healthcare provider if you have changes in vision during treatment with Zepbound.
• Depression or thoughts of suicide. You should pay attention to changes in your mood, behaviors, feelings or thoughts. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any mental changes that are new, worse, or worry you.

what are THE SERIOUS ZEPBOUND SIDE EFFECTS LEADING TO A ZEPBOUND LAWSUIT?

Persistent Vomiting:

• Numerous reports and studies have suggested a strong association between GLP-1 receptor agonists like Zepbound and persistent vomiting. This Zepbound side effect can be debilitating and significantly impact the quality of life for individuals taking Zepbound. Persistent vomiting refers to continuous and uncontrollable bouts of vomiting that occur for an extended period, requiring trips to the emergency room. The exact mechanism by which Zepbound triggers this reaction is still being studied, but it is believed to be related to the drug’s effect on the gastrointestinal system.

​Gastroparesis:

• Stomach Paralysis: Zepbound has been associated with gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach takes too long to empty its contents. This condition has also been observed in patients using similar diabetes medications.

If you took Zepbound and developed gastroparesis or suffered from Saxenda and persistent vomiting, contact Timothy L. Miles, a Zepbound lawyer, today as you are most likely eligible for a Zepbound lawsuit.  (855) 846–6529 or [email protected].

what are the allegations in a zipbound lawsuit?

Contact Zepbound lawyer Timothy L. Miles if you suffered severe Zepbound side effects

​The core of the Zepbound lawsuits centers on allegations against Eli Lilly for failing to provide sufficient warnings about the severe side effects of Zepbound. Plaintiffs argue that the company did not fulfill its duty to inform users and healthcare providers about the risks associated with the drug, particularly the potential for developing gastroparesis and intestinal blockages and experiencing Zepbound and persistent vomiting a painful and debilitating side effect of Zepbound. This lack of comprehensive safety information left many individuals unprepared for the severe gastrointestinal problems they experienced, leading to significant distress and prompting Zepbound lawsuits.
