Trulicity Side Effects | Trulicity ( Dulaglutide) Pharmacist Review - Uses & Precautions

[@Potatopugs]

I’ve been on Trulicity .75 for 4 months now. I’ve lost 31 pounds and my sugars are doing fantastic. I’ve not had any problems with it at all. I’m just not really hungry since I’ve been on it.

[@HealthRX]

Awesome! Glad it’s working without any major issues. All the best.

Same thing would happen if you would eat a Proper Human Diet.

I started trulicity a few days ago and I must recommend to take a nausea medicine before injections, I feel great so far. Not nauseous, not weak, thank God, 🙏

[@lindasanford8823]

I've been on it 5 weeks n stay nauseous for 3 days after injection. I have to take. Zofran 8 mgs

[@alisah2570]

People please stop asking for personal medical advice lol they are not going to respond for liability reasons. Consult with your physician these videos are for informational purposes only and could've also been found by Googling Trulicity. Just needed to say this I hate seeing people ask personal medical questions and wonder why there is no response.

[@tinasparkling6286]

Trulicity helped me make the right choices by decreasing my appetite. I did not have any of the digestive problems that others experienced by eating healthy and exercising.

[@HealthRX]

That’s awesome. You are one of the lucky ones. All the best.

Yes was taking Trulicity for 3months now and not only helping me to lose weight, but it was helping me with my A1c levels & and most important of all to me with my heart. now my insurance wants me to pay $230 a month. That’s a little bit too high for me can’t afford that. Is there anything or any way that I could get it cheaper? Please get back to me. it was making me feel a whole lot better…

Since starting trulicity , I create more natural gas than any drill rig could find. It’s all day, every day, several hundred times a day, even while sleeping. It’s embarrassing. How can I slow this down? It’s hard to leave the house. I do not smoke, and I try to stay away from those that do for fear of blowing myself up....😳 Seriously, what can I do to slow this gas down? Thanks

[@timothytrail3691]

Are you still taking it ? I started today

[@DogMommy.]

Me to . Anyone else feel dizzy taking It?

[@Emanouche]

Main side effects I get still after a month of starting it is diarrhea, it lasts about 4 days after the injection, still figuring out dosage with my doc... I might be taking too much metformin with it.

[@1destinySS]

My insurance stopped covering Ozempic but will cover Trulicity. I have made great progress with Ozempic. All my numbers are down and I'm off 5 other medications. I have lost some weight as well. My main concern is if switching to Trulicity will make all my numbers go back up for a time before the switchover. Will past weight gain return or double, or stay the same, or will I still lose. I have heard many say you will gain weight on Trulicity. If I could stay right where I am at with no medicine and only the diet that would be great but that won't happen. Not able to exercise fully due to past issues.

[@Chaparra1101]

Did you continue to lose weight ? If so how much ??

[@chadmccoy1605]

Thank you. I feel like an idiot because last week I injected into the air and the week prior I got it in my index finger.. maybe I should have read the directions but the man book says w e NEVER read the instructions. Thank s again!

[@TheMightsparrow]

I'm type 1 & I've been given 1.5ml for nearly a year. I've had Swollen foot on & off for that time. It really decreases appetite. I have heart disease & it makes me feel lightheaded sometimes even when my sugar level is at normal levels.

[@gallettiguitartones]

How are you feeling? My doctor sent me this, I'm a type 1 d too

[@Rune_tide]

I'm taking Trulicity, and it's got me so goddamn gassy! Just blasting out gas outta both ends like I was some kind of self-playing tuba. It took me weeks to realize it was the Trulicity that was doing it. I wish there was something I could do for the gas, though, it's really uncomfortable, and probably worse yet, disruptive to day to day activity

[@BallisticBevo]

Damn bruh. 😂

[@johnholmes4960]

Here’s an idea.....maybe we could form our own NATURAL GAS COMPANY, then sell that product to RUSSIA. HOW MORE NATURAL AND CLEANER CAN IT GET? Besides, it will be cheaper because it is already odorized and no need to add something to it. We make a ton of money, we send them our stink, Biden should be happy.

[@feleciasmith6246]

Thanks for sharing have anyone ever reported weight gain

[@HealthRX]

I believe you mean weight gain after discontinuation of the medication. If so, then generally speaking, once you discontinue the medication, you are likely to gain some or all of the weight lost while on the medication if no adjustments to diet, lifestyle or anything else that caused the weight gain in the first place. I personally haven’t heard of anyone gaining weight as a result of taking Trulicity, If that was your question.

[@tristantupaz]

I've been taking it for two months. The TRULICITY, 1.5 dosage ordered my doctor for once a week. I was 145 kilos. Now I weigh 110 kilos

[@Karlheintz]

Thank you doctor for this video. Quick question: is there a possibility that, due to a rebound effect, a subject gain the weight he lost once the treatment is stopped? How does a body react when trulicity is not part of the equation anymore?

[@snj6669]

That was great... I've just started it... can you tell me why does it hurt when I inject? It's really weird.... cos I have injection regularly..but this one hurts.

Are you injecting soon after taking out from cool storage? (I'm assuming you're storing Trulicity in the fridge or a cool container.) The first couple of times I injected myself, it hurt. Then, I decided to let the Trulicity warm up to room temperature (give it 20 to 30 minutes). That did it for me ... now, no more pain when I inject myself!

[@genxkevin]

make sure you take out of the fridge for at least 30 min....

[@brishellrodriguez]

I hope this works cause I was taking viktoza and omg I was throwing up and had severe diareah from it side effect i only used it a week and that was enough for me

How did you do with it? I had the same problem with Victoza, and doctor wants me to start Trulicity.

[@brishellrodriguez]

@@everybreakingwave they are all the same just the name change but they do reduce your appetite I guess that is all the good in that

@@brishellrodriguez I just got so horribly sick with Victoza iI'm afraid if I get sick with Trulicity ... will it last all week long since the med stays in your system that long? I want to try it if it makes me lose weight but just scared of getting super sick for a week!!! 🤢

[@KumR]

Can Trulicity be taken temporarily for few months to bring A1C down and then we can continue regular metformins?

[@HealthRX]

If you and your doctor decide that is the best treatment plan, I don’t see why not. It is not a “lifetime” medicine. There have been instances where people have been able to reduce their diabetic medications based on several factors like lifestyle changes etc. Only thing I will add is that make sure you are doing this with your doctor’s knowledge and approval. All the best.

4 weeks may be too soon to draw a conclusion. If you are tolerating it well and your doctor is in agreement, maybe a couple more weeks may help. Otherwise discuss the new medication, Mounjaro with your doctor. All the best.

Hmmm....Hard to tell. I didn’t see intracranial pressure as a warning in any of the literature that I reviewed. Might be worth discussing with your doctor to rule anything out. Numbness on the other may be a sign of hypoglycemia in some people, so regular blood sugar monitoring is definitely recommended.
