9. Compounded GLP-1 (Semaglutide)*

*This medication is not FDA-regulated as a compounded formulation.

WARNING

Seek emergency help if you have symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat; problems breathing or swallowing; severe rash or itching; fainting or feeling dizzy; very rapid heartbeat.

Tell your healthcare provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer.

Women of childbearing age should use adequate contraception during treatment. Stop taking semaglutide at least 2 months before a planned pregnancy due to the long half-life of the drug.

Drug Interactions

Semaglutide slows gastric emptying, which may impact the absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. Use with insulin or insulin secretagogues may increase the risk of hypoglycemia; dose reduction may be required.

BLACK BOX WARNING — Thyroid C-Cell Tumors

Semaglutide causes thyroid C-cell tumors in rodents at clinically relevant exposures. It is unknown whether semaglutide causes thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans, as the human relevance of semaglutide-induced rodent thyroid C-cell tumors has not been determined.

Semaglutide is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or in patients with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). Counsel patients regarding the potential risk of MTC and the symptoms of thyroid tumors.

10. Compounded GLP-1+GIP (Tirzepatide)*

*This medication is not FDA-regulated as a compounded formulation.

WARNING

Tirzepatide causes thyroid C-cell tumors in rats. It is unknown whether tirzepatide causes thyroid tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans. Tirzepatide is contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). Counsel patients to report symptoms such as a mass in the neck, dysphagia, dysphonia, or dyspnea.

Drug Interactions

Oral contraceptives: administer oral contraceptives at least 4 weeks before initiating tirzepatide and for 4 weeks after each dose increase, as tirzepatide may lower the effect of oral contraceptives. Consider switching to a non-oral contraceptive or adding a barrier method during dose escalation.
