 * Box warning
 * Warning
 * Side effects
 * Drug interactions


BLACK BOX WARNING: METFORMIN MAY CAUSE LACTIC ACIDOSIS

Postmarketing cases of metformin-associated lactic acidosis have resulted in
death, hypothermia, hypotension, and resistant bradyarrhythmias. Symptoms
included malaise, myalgias, respiratory distress, somnolence, dizziness, changes
in heart rate/rhythm, and abdominal pain. Laboratory abnormalities included
elevated blood lactate levels, anion gap acidosis, increased lactate/pyruvate
ratio; and metformin plasma levels generally >5 mcg/mL. In more than 20,000
patient-years exposure to metformin in clinical trials, there were no reports of
lactic acidosis. Reported cases have occurred primarily in diabetic patients
with significant renal insufficiency, including both intrinsic renal disease and
renal hypoperfusion, often in the setting of multiple concomitant
medical/surgical problems and multiple concomitant medications.

Risk factors include renal impairment, concomitant use of certain drugs, age ≥65
years old, radiological studies with contrast, surgery and other procedures,
hypoxic states, excessive alcohol intake, and hepatic impairment. Lactic
acidosis is a medical emergency and requires immediate treatment in the
hospital.


WARNING

Before using metformin, tell your healthcare provider about your medical
history, especially if you have:

procedure or an iodinated contrast imaging procedure. Stop metformin and notify
your healthcare provider immediately if you have an illness with severe diarrhea
and/or vomiting resulting in dehydration.

Additional but rare side effects include:

 * low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
 * feeling cold
 * unusual muscle pain
 * dizziness
 * slow or irregular heart rate
 * trouble breathing
 * metallic taste
 * changes to nails on fingers and toes

BLACK BOX WARNING:

GLP-1s are contraindicated in individuals with a history of medullary thyroid
carcinoma, a family history of such, or in patients with multiple endocrine
neoplasia syndrome type 2. Do not take them if you have ever had thyroid cancer.
In studies with rodents, GLP-1s caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer;
it is not known if they will cause thyroid tumors or cancer in humans. Please
notify your doctor ASAP if you develop trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or
swelling in your neck, or shortness of breath. 

If you experience a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency
room.

Tell your healthcare provider about your medical history prior to taking
Mounjaro®.

Avoid alcohol while taking this medication. If you’re taking diabetes
medications, please discuss this with your prescribing doctor before starting
Mounjaro®, as your diabetes medications may need to be adjusted as you lose
weight.

Females of reproductive potential should use adequate contraception while taking
this medication. It is advised to use a non-oral contraceptive method (instead
of oral contraceptive) or, if using oral contraception- add a barrier method of
contraception 4 weeks after initiation and 4 weeks after dose escalation. 

Do not take this medication if pregnant, trying to get pregnant or
breastfeeding. If you plan to become pregnant, this medication needs to be
stopped at least 2 months before trying. This medication may cause fetal harm.

Notify your doctor if you have kidney, liver, or pancreas problems.

Stop using Mounjaro® and call your healthcare provider immediately if you have
severe stomach or abdomen pain that will not go away, with or without vomiting.

Stop using Mounjaro® and get medical help right away if you have any 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; or very rapid heartbeat.

Serious hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylaxis and angioedema) have been
reported. Discontinue Mounjaro® if suspected and promptly seek medical advice.


WARNING

Please contact your doctor ASAP and seek in-person care immediately if a side
effect becomes problematic or you experience:

 * Severe nausea and/or vomiting resulting in dehydration-  it is important to
   stay well hydrated and drink plenty of fluids while on this medication 
 * Kidney problems/kidney failure - vomiting, nausea, diarrhea can cause
   dehydration and kidney issues and make kidney problems worse in individuals
   who have pre-existing kidney conditions; may sometimes lead to the need for
   hemodialysis 
 * Thyroid C-Cell Tumor: Trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in
   your neck, or shortness of breath (see black box warning below)
 * Pancreatitis: Severe pain in your abdomen or back that will not go away 
 * Acute gallbladder disease - Pain in the middle or right upper stomach, fever,
   white parts of your eyes turn yellow or skin turns yellow, nausea/vomiting.
   If gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder is suspected further studies
   are needed.
 * Hepatitis/Elevated liver enzymes/Jaundice
 * Diabetic retinopathy problems: Changes in vision in those with type II
   diabetes, particularly vision problems may worsen in those with a history of
   diabetic retinopathy 
 * Severe gastrointestinal disease - may cause gastrointestinal disease; do not
   use if you have a history of severe gastrointestinal disease 
 * Signs of low blood sugar (for example, dizziness, weakness, shakiness,
   jitteriness, headache, anxiety/mood changes, rapid heartbeat, confusion,
   slurred speech, sweating, or lightheadedness). While this is rare with
   GLP-1s, if it occurs, please seek in-person care immediately. If you have
   these symptoms, try having liquid or food containing sugar (around 15-20
   grams) —drinking juice, having regular soda, or eating some hard candies
   right away, as this will help raise your blood sugar quickly. If taken with
   insulin or an insulin secretagogue (ie sulfonylurea) it is best to talk to
   your healthcare provider about possibly lowering the dose of these
   medications to lower the risk of hypoglycemia. 
 * Increasing heart rate
 * Worsening depression, behavior changes, or suicidality
 * Note: Never share the Mounjaro® pen with other people

   who have pre-existing kidney conditions; may sometimes lead to the need for
   hemodialysis 
 * Thyroid C-Cell Tumor: Trouble swallowing, hoarseness, a lump or swelling in
   your neck, or shortness of breath (see black box warning below)
 * Pancreatitis: Severe pain in your abdomen or back that will not go away 
 * Acute gallbladder disease - Pain in the middle or right upper stomach, fever,
   white parts of your eyes turn yellow or skin turns yellow, nausea/vomiting.
   If gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder is suspected further studies
   are needed.
 * Hepatitis/Elevated liver enzymes/Jaundice
 * Diabetic retinopathy problems: Changes in vision in those with type II
   diabetes, particularly vision problems may worsen in those with a history of
   diabetic retinopathy 
 * Severe gastrointestinal disease - may cause gastrointestinal disease; do not
   use if you have a history of severe gastrointestinal disease 
 * Signs of low blood sugar (for example, dizziness, weakness, shakiness,
   jitteriness, headache, anxiety/mood changes, rapid heartbeat, confusion,
   slurred speech, sweating, or lightheadedness). While this is rare with
   GLP-1s, if it occurs, please seek in-person care immediately. If you have
   these symptoms, try having liquid or food containing sugar (around 15-20
   grams) —drinking juice, having regular soda, or eating some hard candies
   right away, as this will help raise your blood sugar quickly. If taken with
   insulin or an insulin secretagogue (ie sulfonylurea) it is best to talk to
   your healthcare provider about possibly lowering the dose of these
   medications to lower the risk of hypoglycemia. 
 * Increasing heart rate
 * Worsening depression, behavior changes, or suicidality
 * Never share the Wegovy® pen with other people

DRUG INTERACTIONS

As with other medications, Wegovy® can interact with alcohol and certain
prescription and non-prescription medications and herbal products. The risk of
hypoglycemia is increased when combined with insulin or insulin secretagogues
such as sulfonylureas. Wegovy® delays gastric emptying and may impact the
absorption of oral medications. If you are on thyroid hormone medication, prior
to starting Wegovy®, please review the timing of taking your thyroid hormone
medication with the doctor who prescribes it as it may need to be adjusted. The
drug levels of medications with narrow therapeutic windows (ie warfarin) should
be monitored closely while on Wegovy®.

Please consult the pharmaceutical packaging for a full list of side effects,
warnings, interactions and additional information. 

To report suspected adverse reactions to Wegovy® contact the FDA at
1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

In case of emergencies, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
