(Sodhi et al., JAMA 2023) Stay hydrated take frequent small sips of water or sugar-free squash throughout the day Temporarily switch to low-fibre foods: white bread, plain crackers, white rice, or pasta Eat small, frequent meals rather than large ones Avoid spicy, fatty, or very rich foods Ask your pharmacist about anti-diarrhoea medication let them know you are taking semaglutide See a doctor if it lasts more than 7 days, or if there is blood in your stools Constipation Because semaglutide slows down digestion, some people find that their bowels become sluggish
Here, all the standard-issue advice applies: Control your portions, prioritize protein and fiber, and drink more water
In trials to assess semaglutides effectiveness for reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults, increases in total bilirubin greater than or equal to 3 times the upper limit of normal were seen in .3% of people taking Wegovy versus .2% of people taking the placebo
