Cagrilintide sides: Anyone have advice?

[LaughingDuck]

Well, I started Cagrilintide 48 hours ago and have quite the nausea effect. Oh, I mean it works, its hard to get 1,500 calories because I'm not into food; nausea isn't helping either. FYI I did 0.250mg, really dumb for thinking I could start at 1mg (don't!),

I was just wondering if anyone on here has had similar sides like me and if they've countered them with something. Also do sides usually go away if your body is used to it.

I started as well this week. No I'll effects from the .25 and actually felt a bit hungry a few days in so dosed up again at .25 on Tuesday. I am also on a 1.5 sema dose.

didn't have much nausea but the appetite was low. i took electrolytes via liquid iv, also a daily sublingual b12 and daily calcium + vit d. a little fatigue but not bad on days 2-4

Can I ask where did you get it from? I am embarrassed to say that I got mine from Amo about two months ago because they had it in the US and I was impatient. I have felt nothing from the Cagri on day 5 of Tirz starting at .25, .5 and now 1mg. Either this med isn't for me, or this is garbage product from Amo. I did not test.

I have the same. Did .25 this week and didn't feel anything. Hit or miss depending on each individual. Will prob go up more next week.

Thank you for this. When I start I will definitely start at .125.

It's good, so I hope I can get used to it and not have sides.

electrolytes i'd say. but if nausea continues you can ask your doc for zofran. tell them you're on compounded glp1 and experiencing nausea, or if you are on tirz or sema from a compounder, ask them for zofran.

Same and took .25mg. Took 48 hours to kick in, had a nice 36 hour fast, and tanked my electrolytes. No nausea and felt much better after Liquid IV.

 

[nccane]

Took .5mg this week split. Really didn't feel anything out side of being a bit tired. I'm broken though, haha.

The nausea I could have dealt with. It was the way the fatigue hit and knocked me down like a dead horse. I would def start lower and build up.

I think I'm just a sensitive boy and need to be more serious on fiber and electrolytes. Been having stomach issues since starting; at least nausea has mostly gone away just mild stomach ach, thirst and very minor heartburn.


I also will start spreading meals out because I used to only eat twice and I think they might be too big (since glp's reduce the speed of food being processed).
