Lottie Moss has opened up about her terrifying hospital admission after taking an Ozempic overdose - revealing that she 'felt like I was dying'.

The 27-year-old influencer and younger half-sister of supermodel Kate Moss was hospitalised in 2024 after taking a high dose of the injectable semaglutide medication (via The Standard).

Ozempic, and similar GLP and GLP-1 drugs such as Mounjaro and Wegovy, have become the drug of choice for anyone looking to lose weight thanks to its appetite suppressant effects.

Originally created to aid with the management of type 2 diabetes, the medication works by reducing blood sugar levels and increasing the body's insulin levels.

According to guidance from the NHS, Ozempic is not currently approved for weight-loss in the UK, however medications Mounjaro and Wegovy are.

What has Lottie Moss said about using Ozempic?

During an episode of her Dream On podcast, Moss revealed that she decided to try using Ozempic after feeling unhappy with her weight.

"A few months ago, I was not feeling happy about my weight, I had a friend, and she could get it for me," she explained last September. "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.

"At the end of the day it is a medication, it is dangerous and really meant for weight loss of people of a very large size."

The former model also addressed her decision on Abbey Clancy's Exhibit A podcast, admitting that she'd felt pressured by the amount of celebrities using the drug (via The Sun).

"I think I in myself just felt like I didn't feel happy with my body," she explained.

Why did Lottie Moss have a seizure after taking Ozempic?

Appearing on Olivia Attwood's ITV series The Price of Perfection, Moss shared exactly what happened when she was hospitalised, revealing that she'd suffered from a seizure.

"I'd lost like, six or seven kg, like, it was so dramatic. Coming off really quickly, and you almost don't even notice it, because you're so sick and, like, tired all the time," she explained.

"That's why they rushed me to the hospital. In the ER, I started to feel something really weird happen as soon as I got on the bed, I had the seizure, and they were holding me down. I was terrified.

"I do remember it, I started to feel, I honestly felt like I was dying. And it sounds really dramatic, but I've never had a seizure before."

Moss had previously admitted that she wasn't using the 'correct dosage' for her body size, meaning that she'd taken too much of the drug.

She said: "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."

Does Lottie Moss still use Ozempic?

Despite the horrifying side effects, the content creator admitted that she'd felt good about herself after being discharged from hospital and understands how the feeling can be 'so addictive'.

Moss even admitted that she'd 'thought' about using the injections again, before remembering it 'didn’t work out for a reason'.

She said on her podcast: "I would rather die any day than take it again. It made me feel so nauseous."

Responding to Moss' comments, a spokesperson for Novo Nordisk told LADbible: "We understand and empathise with the health challenges this patient has faced. While we cannot comment on this particular incident, the safety and wellbeing of patients taking our medicines is our top priority.

"We care deeply about the safety and wellbeing of patients who take our medicines and strongly recommend that all patients stay in close contact with their healthcare professional for proper diagnosis, ongoing guidance, and careful monitoring.

"It is important to note that Ozempic (semaglutide injection) is a prescription-only medicine, meaning that it must be prescribed by a healthcare professional under strict supervision. Patients must make any decisions about treatment together with their healthcare professional so that their doctor can assess whether it is appropriate to prescribe the medicine or not, based on their assessment of the patient’s individual medical profile. Accessing prescription-only medicines without a valid prescription or without the care of a healthcare professional can pose a direct danger to health.

"We are working closely with the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency to continuously monitor the safety profile of our medicines. Novo Nordisk has reported this case to our safety team who will follow up in line with our procedures for safety reporting."

Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection is available to stream Thursday (12 June) on ITVX.
