Daily Precautions

1. Inform patients that Semaglutide caused thyroid C-cell tumors in rats, and the relevance of this finding for humans is unclear. Advise patients treated with Semaglutide to report promptly if they develop symptoms suggestive of thyroid cancer, such as a neck mass, hoarseness, dysphagia, or dyspnea.

2. Inform patients that pancreatitis may occur during treatment with Semaglutide and describe the signs and symptoms of pancreatitis, including persistent severe abdominal pain sometimes radiating to the back, with or without vomiting. Emphasize that if such symptoms occur, patients must stop Semaglutide immediately and notify their clinician promptly.

3. Inform patients not to share the Semaglutide injection pen with another person, even if the needle is changed. Sharing the injection pen may pose a risk of transmitting or acquiring infectious diseases.
