Fox News
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.
"I have this gene - GDF15 - which makes you extremely prone to nausea which is why I was so sick during my pregnancy. 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. Christina Dugan Ramirez is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.
"I lost 30 pounds so quick," said Schumer, who is mom to 4-year-old son, Gene, whom she shares with husband, Chris Fischer. "I looked great and I couldn't lift my head off the pillow, so what's the point?"
