Understanding Trulicity and Its Uses

Trulicity (dulaglutide) is a medication commonly prescribed to treat type 2 diabetes. Manufactured by Eli Lilly, Trulicity is a once-a-week injectable medicine that mimics the effects of GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1), a hormone that stimulates insulin secretion and lowers glucagon secretion from the liver. While primarily used for diabetes management, Trulicity is sometimes prescribed off-label for weight management.

Common Trulicity Side Effects

Like any medication, Trulicity can have side effects. The most common Trulicity side effects include diarrhea, frequent bowel movements, nausea, and retching. Other less common Trulicity side effects reported by patients include abdominal distress, abdominal pain, fatigue, and decreased appetite.

Serious Trulicity Side Effects

While most Trulicity side effects are mild and temporary, some individuals may experience more severe complications. These serious side effects of Trulicity may include:

1. Pancreatitis: Trulicity, like other GLP-1 receptor agonists, has been linked to inflammation of the pancreas. Pancreatitis can cause severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and other gastrointestinal symptoms.
2. Changes in Vision: In rare cases, Trulicity has been associated with vision problems. If you notice any changes in your vision while taking Trulicity, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
3. Low Blood Sugar: Trulicity can sometimes cause low blood sugar levels, which can lead to dizziness, confusion, sweating, and even loss of consciousness. This is particularly important for individuals with a history of hypoglycemia.
4. Kidney Problems: Some patients taking Trulicity have reported kidney problems, including kidney failure. If you experience changes in urination, swelling in the legs or feet, or persistent fatigue, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional.
5. Gallbladder Disease: Trulicity, along with other GLP-1 receptor agonists, has been associated with an increased risk of gallbladder disease. This can include inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis) and the formation of gallstones (cholelithiasis).
6. Severe Stomach Problems: In several cases, individuals taking Trulicity have experienced severe stomach issues, such as gastroparesis or "paralyzed stomachs." Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, feeling full quickly after eating, abdominal bloating, and abdominal pain.

If you have experienced any of these serious side effects or other complications while taking Trulicity, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional and consider seeking legal advice.

The Rise of Trulicity Lawsuits

In recent months, lawsuits have been filed against pharmaceutical companies, including Trulicity's manufacturer, Eli Lilly, alleging negligence and failure to adequately warn patients about the potential risks associated with the medication. These lawsuits claim that individuals who have suffered from Trulicity side effects, such as gastroparesis, pancreatitis, or gallbladder disease, should be compensated for their pain, suffering, medical expenses, and other damages.​
