A first-degree relative with medullary thyroid cancer is a contraindication. A strong, persistent history in multi-generations outside of a first-degree relative is also a contraindication. Please discuss with the medical provider all relatives diagnosed with medullary thyroid cancer. To date, MTC after GLP-1 administration has been observed only in rodents and not in humans.
Yes. Since GLP-1 slows food transit through the intestines, you may experience nausea, acid reflux, constipation, or diarrhea. We have medication at Options to help with this and can also prescribe medications to your local pharmacy. NOTE: GLP-1 medication may trigger pancreatitis, gallbladder attacks or gastroparesis. Discuss with your medical provider if you have a history of these conditions.
While there have been no observable detrimental side effects noted in nursing mothers taking GLP-1 for other reasons (i.e. diabetes), there has not been enough data or studies to determine if there are long term effects on breastfeeding mothers or infants. Additionally, milk production requires an additional 500 calories per day. Currently, it is not recommended to breastfeed while taking GLP1 medications.
If you have discussed fertility plans or treatments with your doctor, it is recommended to stop GLP-1 medications at least 2 months prior to TTC. Please speak with your physician to determine if a longer washout period is recommended.
Injection training handouts and videos are available to you. You may also request an injection training appointment with our Medical Provider Assistant who can do an in-person or telehealth video appointment to train you in the process.
Limited data has indicated a small subset patients experience mood changes after the initiation of GLP-1. Please discuss with your medical provider if you do not feel like yourself. If you are having suicidal thoughts, stop the medication immediately and call your medical provider. The Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 is available by phone or text 24/7 for immediate help.
