Important Safety Information

Who Should NOT Take GLP-1 Medications?

Do not take compounded Semaglutide or Tirzepatide if you:

Have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC)
Have Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)
Have had a serious allergic reaction to Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, or any of their ingredients

Warnings and Precautions

Thyroid Tumors: Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have caused thyroid tumors in animal studies. It is unknown if they cause thyroid cancer in humans. If you notice a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, or shortness of breath, contact your doctor immediately.
Gastrointestinal Side Effects: Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and stomach pain. These symptoms are typically mild and improve over time.
Pancreatitis Risk: Severe stomach pain that radiates to your back, with or without vomiting, may indicate pancreatitis. Stop taking the medication and seek medical attention immediately.
Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar): If taken with other diabetes medications (e.g., insulin or sulfonylureas), GLP-1 medications may increase the risk of low blood sugar. Watch for symptoms such as dizziness, shakiness, sweating, or confusion.
Gallbladder Issues: Some patients may experience gallstones or gallbladder inflammation. Signs include upper right stomach pain, fever, nausea, and jaundice.
Kidney Function: Dehydration due to severe nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea can worsen kidney function. Stay hydrated and monitor for symptoms.
Retinopathy: Rapid blood sugar changes may lead to worsening diabetic eye disease. If you notice vision changes, consult your healthcare provider.
