A side effect is any unwanted medical occurrence in a patient who has been given a pharmaceutical product that may or may not have been caused by treatment with the product. A side effect can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease associated with the use of the product.

By reporting side effects for Novo Nordisk products, you help us to ensure the safety of our products and our patients. Your information will also enable Novo Nordisk to fulfill its reporting responsibilities to health authorities, which requires that we provide information on side effects with our products — even in cases where a relationship between the product and the effect is not established.
