I understand that Semaglutide may cause serious side effects, including:

• Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): Especially if taken with other diabetes medications. I understand that I may only use Semaglutide if my doctor who is monitoring my diabetes is fully aware of my use. It is 100% my responsibility to communicate my use of Semaglutide and ensure my doctor agrees and monitors it as well.

• Pancreatitis: Severe stomach pain that does not go away, with or without vomiting.

• Gallbladder Problems: Pain in the upper abdomen, fever, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), or clay-colored stools.

• Kidney Issues: Worsening kidney function, especially in patients with pre-existing kidney problems.

Thyroid Tumors:

I understand that Semaglutide has been associated with thyroid tumors in animal studies, and it is unknown if it causes thyroid tumors or thyroid cancer in humans.

Important Considerations:

I understand that I should not use Semaglutide if I have a personal or family history of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
I understand that I must consult my general in-person healthcare provider before starting Semaglutide, especially if I am pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Action Steps:

I agree to and understand that I must contact my healthcare provider promptly if I experience any side effects or have concerns while taking semaglutide.

I agree to inform my primary care doctor about my Semaglutide treatment, as well as any other doctors I am seeing. I will also get blood tests through my own doctor at their recommendation as needed. Please call or text us at if you have any questions or are unclear about the instructions.
