RHONJ's Dolores Catania Gives Weight Loss Drug Warning
Several months ago, the star underwent a heart procedure. During this timeframe, Dolo had to hit the pause button with Mounjaro, her weight loss medication. Despite the pounds gained during this period, she regrets nothing. But, speaking of the side effects that this medication brought back into her life, alongside her recent surgery, Dolores does have a warning and a suggestion to make. RHONJ star Dolores Catania shares weight loss and health update On her heart procedure, Dolores 'had a condition called AFib, where I was feeling my heart beat out of my chest,' she explained to E! News. She then urged her fans to take their health seriously, warning, 'If you ever feel a flutter in your chest, you need to get that checked. That's not something to ignore.' Dolores understands that this symptom often mirrors anxiety. However, she continued to press that anyone feeling this symptom must 'go to a cardiologist and get a checkup.' Way to use your platform for good, Dolores! However, while preparing for her procedure, Dolores had to stop taking Mounjaro. She gained 'probably 15 pounds in over a month.' But, 'Now that I'm back on, I'm healthy and I feel much better,' Dolores explained, noting that she is now 'down 10' pounds. Following her procedure, Dolores resumed taking Mounjaro, but feelings of nausea hit her almost immediately. Thankfully, Doloroes found a way to help her deal with this pesky little side effect. She now takes Advanced Herbals, a ginger chewable made by Dramamine, which makes her nausea side effects quickly fade away. Also, never let anyone make you feel bad about taking a weight management pill, Dolores added. 'Don't not do it because you're afraid of what somebody else thinks,' she stressed. The Real Housewives of New Jersey is available to stream on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland.

Dolores Catania Teams Up with Advanced Herbals®, from the Makers of Dramamine®, to Launch The Dish on GLP-1s Content Series and Tackle One of the Most Common Complaints from GLP-1 Users: Nausea
Advanced Herbals® and the reality TV star are sharing new, original content aimed to help the majority (64%) of GLP-1 users who wish they had more education about the medications' side effects TARRYTOWN, N.Y., July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Side effects can crash the GLP-1 party – and most people aren't prepared for it. A survey commissioned by Advanced Herbals®, from the makers of Dramamine®, and Fleet® revealed that nausea and constipation are among the most common side effects reported by GLP-1 users, affecting 42% and 29% respectively – often without warning. Nearly two-thirds (64%) of GLP-1 users surveyed wished they had received more education about side effects prior to starting treatment, and 61% of users agreed the symptoms were more real than they had anticipated, indicating a potential gap in knowledge around GLP-1 side effects. To address the information gap and empower GLP-1 users with ongoing support during their health journeys, Advanced Herbals® is partnering with reality TV star Dolores Catania, to debut a new content series: "The Dish on GLP-1s." As a GLP-1 advocate who has spoken openly about her ups and downs with the medications, Catania is getting real about the one side effect that nearly derailed her progress and why she has used Advanced Herbals® Ginger Chews to help address her side effects – because nausea doesn't come with a heads up. "When I first started my wellness journey with GLP-1 medications, I was prepared for weight loss and I was ready to feel different, but the nausea? No one prepared me for that," said Dolores Catania. "It really impacted my day-to-day life, but at the time no one was having these open, honest conversations about GLP-1 use – there was still a lot of stigma and speculation." Real Talk + Real ExpertiseThe series, which debuted today on Instagram and YouTube, features candid conversations between Catania and Dr. Holly Lofton, a Board Certified Obesity Medicine Physician at NYU Langone. Dr. Lofton offers professional expertise, and Dolores Catania gets candid about her experiences as they unpack the real-life impact of GLP-1 side effects. Together, the two offer support and smart, stigma-free solutions, including how Advanced Herbals® Ginger Chews, with a clinically tested dose of ginger to help relieve nausea from morning sickness, motion sickness and upset stomach, may help individuals with nausea associated with their GLP-1 journey*. "GLP-1 medications work by slowing the rate at which the stomach empties, helping users feel full longer and ultimately consume fewer calories, but this mechanism can also lead to symptoms like nausea, bloating and constipation," said Dr. Holly Lofton. "These early symptoms and side effects can ultimately derail proper use of the drug or even deter potential new patients. That's why non-prescription, convenient options, like Advanced Herbals® Ginger Chews for nausea and Fleet® Stimulant Oral Laxatives for constipation, can be helpful tools in managing these common side effects." The series will air weekly across Dramamine's social platforms, offering relatable, expert-backed insights meant to inform, empower and resonate with the growing community of GLP-1 users looking for information on their wellness journeys.
