Semaglutide (subQ) Pharmacology Podcast

On this podcast episode, I discuss the pharmacology, adverse effects, and drug interactions of semaglutide. Semaglutide has two primary uses: Type 2 diabetes and Weight Management – the dosing varies depending upon the indication. When using semaglutide, pay attention to GI adverse effects. Nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting are the most common ADRs and are dose-dependent. Pay attention to corticosteroid bursts. They can cause substantial hyperglycemia and counteract the effects of diabetes medications like semaglutide. Be sure to check out our free Top 200 study guide – a 31 page PDF that is yours for FREE!
