THE FACTS ABOUT TRULICITY AND KIDNEY DAMAGE

If you suffered serious Trulicity side effects, contact Trulicity lawyer Timothy L. Miles today

INTRODUCTION

​Trulicity is a medication that is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is a once-weekly injectable medication that belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists. Trulicity works by mimicking the effects of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which helps regulate blood sugar levels in the body. By activating the GLP-1 receptors, Trulicity helps promote insulin secretion, reduce glucagon secretion, slow down gastric emptying, and increase satiety. This combination of effects helps to lower blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

While Trulicity can be an effective treatment option for many individuals with diabetes, it does come with potential side effects such as nausea and stomach pain. Additionally, in addition to other serious side effects of Trulicity, there has been an increase in the number of individuals who have reported they developed kidney damage after taking Trulicity.

In this article, we will discuss the link between Trulicity and kidney damage or disease and the legal recourse available for those who developed kidney damage after taking Trulicity. If you have taken Trulicity and experienced serious Trulicity side effects, such as gastroparesis, you are most likely eligible for a Trulicity lawsuit.

WHAT IS TRULICITY?

​Trulicity is a medication that is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. It is a once-weekly injectable medication that belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists. Trulicity works by mimicking the effects of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which helps regulate blood sugar levels in the body. By activating the GLP-1 receptors, Trulicity helps promote insulin secretion, reduce glucagon secretion, slow down gastric emptying, and increase satiety. This combination of effects helps to lower blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

COMMON TRULICITY SIDE EFFECTS

While Trulicity is generally well-tolerated, it can cause a range of side effects. Common Trulicity side effects may include diarrhea, frequent bowel movements, nausea, and retching. These effects are generally mild and transient. However, if you have suffered any of these side effects of Trulicity it is important to monitor any changes in your condition and report them to your healthcare provider.

THE LINK BETWEEN TRULICITY AND KIDNEY DAMAGE

One of the serious side effects of Trulicity is kidney damage or kidney failure.  There has been an increase in reports recently of individuals who developed kidney damage after taking Trulicity​.  As noted herein, Trulicity belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which work by increasing insulin production and reducing glucose production in the liver. While Trulicity is generally well-tolerated, there have been reports of kidney-related side effects of Trulicity in some individuals. It has been an increasing number of reports that kidney damage appears to happen in people experiencing Trulicity side effects including severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea from Trulicity. The belief is that the side effects of Trulicity can result in dehydration, which can lead to kidney damage or worsen existing kidney problems.

These Trulicity side effects can range from mild impairment of kidney function to severe kidney damage. It is important for patients taking Trulicity to be aware of the potential risk and to closely monitor their kidney function through regular blood tests with their physician.

REPORTING TRULICITY SIDE EFFECTS

​The FDA encourages people who have a problem related to the devices or drug to report the problem through the MedWatch Voluntary Reporting Form or call 1-800-332-1088 for more information.  Make sure to provide all information about your Trulicity stomach side effects, especially if you took Trulicity and developed gastroparesis, gallbladder disease, kidney damage, or kidney failure, or suffered any other Trulicity side effects, along with a detailed description of any other problems you suffered from taking Trulicity.

Additionally, the FDA also advises individuals that they may safely dispose of any unused Trulicity at a neighborhood drug takeback location and provides instructions on how to safely dispose of the drug if there are no nearby takeback centers, as well as what to do with your medicine that has been exposed to heat, such as fire, on unsafe water.
