Sharon Osbourne has admitted to 'throwing up' after losing more than 2stone by taking the weight loss drug Ozempic.
The 70 year old former -X Factor judge and wife of Ozzy Osbourne took the weight-loss injections for four months, which helped her lose 13.6kg – or 2 stone 1lbs
During an appearance on Bill Maher's Club Random podcast, she opened up about how she took the semaglutide injection, which helps lower blood sugar by helping the pancreas make more insulin.
Sharon, who has a history of weight struggles, said: "You have a weight loss problem and you've tried everything and then somebody says take this injection and you're going to be skinny."
Bill responded, saying that he, himself, couldn't take the injection because he is scared of taking "foreign substances" into his body, before telling Sharon that medicine is a game of "always playing the odds" to which Sharon agreed, "always".
She went on to explain that Ozempic was effective for her because it helped her to lose her appetite, and even after stopping the injections, any hunger was still at bay.
Speaking about her initial experience of taking the drug, Sharon said: "The first few weeks was f**king s**t because you just throw up all the time."
But once the sickness was over, Sharon said that she was "fine" and "felt nothing" as she explained that the reason she thought her hunger didn't return was due to her stomach shrinking.
Sharon and Bill went on to talk about the "heavy hand of government and media in COVID" as Sharon said that the government encouraged people to "put stuff into our bodies that has not been properly tested".
She went on to say that she felt okay about taking Ozempic due to it being used to treat diabetes.
It is the drug used for type 2 diabetes, but due to its weight-loss side effects, it's become so popular that there is now a global shortage, due to the demand for it.
Sharon's chat with Bill comes eight months after she was rushed to hospital after suffering a "terrifying medical emergency" on Friday 18 December when she suddenly fell ill while recording a paranormal TV series in California, according to TMZ.
Her son, Jack, 37, said he was with Sharon at the time of the scare, as she was with him filming a new episode of Night of Terror', and said he would leave it up to her to share what exactly happened to her.
The dad-of-three went on to thank everyone who sent well wishes and prayers to his mum.
Sharon and her husband, Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne, are now grandparents to five grandchildren.
