These medications are contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, and injection site reactions. These typically diminish as dosage is gradually escalated.
Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney injury, hypoglycemia (with insulin), and allergic reactions. Consult your healthcare provider immediately if you experience severe symptoms.
Contraindications: History of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN 2, pancreatitis, pregnancy or breastfeeding, severe gastrointestinal disease. This is not a complete list — always discuss your full medical history with your physician.
