Lottie Moss Had A Seizure After Overdosing On Ozempic For Weight Loss

On the off chance you’re unfamiliar, Ozempic is the most popular brand of weight loss drug ‘Semaglitude’, with more than 9 million people, including celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Elon Musk, injecting the miracle weight loss drug into their upper thigh in pursuit of a less gross body.

One person who definitely doesn’t need Ozempic is Lottie Moss – the younger sister of Kate Moss who we’ve blogged about plenty of times on Sick Chirpse. I doubt any doctor would prescribe it to her, but she managed to get her hands on it anyway through a friend, and ended up injecting a crazy amount into her thigh.

What follows is a pretty good PSA for anyone out there who might be thinking of taking Ozempic without having a valid prescription. 26-year-old Lottie described the experience on her podcast ‘Dream On‘:

”A few months ago, I was not feeling happy about my weight, I had a friend, and she could get it for me. It was below board, from a doctor, but it wasn’t like you go into a doctor’s office and he prescribes it for you, takes your blood pressure, and takes tests, which is what you need when you go on something like Ozempic.

When I was taking it, the amount that I was taking was meant for people who are 100 kilos and over and I’m in the 50s range. It’s these small things I wish I’d known before taking it. But I took it, you inject it into your leg, and it was the worst decision I ever made.

I took it for two weeks. It comes with a pen and different doses, you take one injection one week, one injection the next week and you take every week, and I’ve never felt sicker in my life. I was throwing up, it was horrible. I ended up being in bed for two days, felt so sick, my weight had dropped. I started at about 60 kilos, and I went down to 57 with the first dose, then I went down to 54. It was crazy, my lowest was 53.

I felt so sick one day I said to my friend, “I can’t keep any water down, I can’t keep any food down, no liquids, nothing. I need to go to hospital, I feel really sick.

We went to ER at three in the morning, we go and see one of the nurses and she’s like “how much of a dose are you taking?” I was like however much and she was like “oh my god, that’s so not the amount you should be taking.” She asked how much weight I’d lost in two weeks and I told her…. She sent me to the emergency room, and I got wheelchaired through the hospital.

At one point, I went to the bathroom, and I felt really sick, I felt like I was going to pass out, I thought something was happening, I didn’t feel good. As soon as I got into the room where I was seen by another nurse, I literally had a seizure from how dehydrated I was, which was honestly one of the scariest things that has ever happened to me in my life. My friend Reece had to hold my feet down and it was just so scary, the whole situation, I didn’t know what was going on, my face was clenching up, my whole body was tense, my hands, it was so weird, your hands clench up and you can’t move them and it feels like you’re going to break your hand. It was honestly horrible.

I hope by me talking about this and saying my experience with it can be a lesson to some people, it’s so not worth it. It’s for diabetes, it’s not for weight loss really. I get that in the media everyone and all these celebrities are on it right now and it’s so hard to look at that and see these dramatic weight losses, especially for people with eating disorders and problems with eating, it’s so hard to see that when maybe you’re not someone who drops weight quickly or you’re struggling with recovering.”

Fair play to Lottie Moss for taking responsibility for her stupidity and sharing her story. I mean, she took double the dose and used it to basically starve herself… despite being a very healthy weight already! She had absolutely no business taking Ozempic! Makes you wonder how many others out there who are a perfectly healthy weight feel tempted to take the drug in order to fit into some ridiculous beauty standard when they are already aesthetically beautiful.

The good news is that Lottie Moss has now been scared straight and hopefully there’s loads of young girls out there who will also feel terrified after reading her experience. Or at least, they’ll go down the appropriate route and see a professional about it, rather than get it from a friend and their sketchy doctor, and use it without any idea as to what dosage to take or its side effects.
