Warning about a low probability event: adverse liver reaction to GLP-1 drug

[rsmith]

What am I missing? Why are you surprised by your lipids increasing when you stopped a lipid lowering medication?

Since starting GLPs and the like (e.g., cagri), I've been taken off of 2 hypertensives and had another one reduced by 2/3. Blood pressure has dropped and labs are improving dramatically as well. So the triple increase in LDL was somewhat of a surprise although it's likely a "rebound" effect rather than anything to worry about. The Survo I'm titrating up at present will hopefully bring that back down via the glucagon component.
