Hi,
   i've been on Victoza since November of last year.  And maybe at the 
beginning there was a little nausea, but for the most part it hasn't 
caused much of a problem.  i was on Byetta before the Victoza, and i 
like the Victoza much better.  It does help for sure where appetite is 
concerned, and i'm on Medicare and it's covered.  Hope this helps.
