I WAS PRESCRIBED OZEMPIC 2.5 WITH INCREASE AFTER 1 MONTH. IMMEDIATELY I STARTED MASSIVE THICK SPUTUM THAT COATED MY THROAT. UNABLE TO COUGH IT UP BUT MADE ME NAUSEOUS AND OCCASIONAL VOMITING. I TRIED MUCINEX AND BENADRYL TO TRY TO DRY UP THE SECRETIONS BUT NOTHING HELPED. I HAD OCCASIONAL NAUSEA FROM THE MEDICINE BUT THE POST NASAL DRIP WAS THE WORST. MY DR SAID SHE NEVER HEARD OF ANYONE HAVING A REACTION LIKE THIS TO OZEMPIC. ANYONE ELSE HAVE A SIMILAR REACTION?

I had the same side effects you just wrote about. I stopped to mine because I was thinking so sick all the time although I did lose a significant amount of weight.
If you are dehydrated this could potentially thicken mucus caused by other allergies or conditions (dehydration is a commonality on these drugs). Also, it could be an actual allergic reaction to the drug itself. Have you ever been diagnosed with GERD or acid reflux? is it post nasal drip or is the originating near your esophagus? You aren't taking anything else besides Ozempic?

You are not the only one. I started googling about it and found many having issues with running noses and terrible post nasal like you and myself . Also many upper respratory infections . Me i use to get them once every 9.years or si .Fir me 3 over the last 12 months .Started about 6 months into starting ozempic. You bring this up with the doctor - Oh this isn't a side effect. They are wrong too many have this after starting ozempic or wegovy. I just wrote to novo nordisk about the side effects I am having beside upset stomach and other gastro issued
