Users on Reddit have reported experiencing back pain while on GLP-1 medications, though it's not as commonly discussed as other side effects like nausea or gastrointestinal issues. The experiences and perceived causes vary.

Experiences with Back Pain:

One user on Ozempic for T2 diabetes reported significant positive side effects, including weight loss and improved health markers. They specifically mentioned, "My back has stopped hurting and I sleep better because I no longer have to wake up multiple times to shift my weight off this or that internal organ. "[1] In this case, the back pain relief was attributed to weight loss facilitated by the medication.

Another user described severe side effects including "pain in the lower back area that ended up becoming some kind of gastric infection," though they also noted this "may have had nothing directly to do with it" (the GLP-1 medication). [2]

A user with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) taking Mounjaro (MJ) mentioned that while the medication helped with many symptoms like sleep, flare-ups, and overall feeling, it did not fix their back pain. They stated, "Back pain. This I still have, and its my next journey to try and fix. It doesn’t fix your collagen, it just seems to fix the immune issues, for me. "[3]

Remedies and Preventions Recommended:

The provided data does not contain specific remedies or preventions recommended by users for back pain experienced while on GLP-1 medications. The instances of back pain are either reported as improving due to weight loss [1] or as a persistent issue not resolved by the medication [3], or potentially linked to other complications like a gastric infection [2].
