If you have any serious side effects Because Trulicity, please tell your doctor immediately, including: slow/irregular heartbeat, signs of kidney problems (such as changes in urine output), changes in vision.

If you have any very serious side effects, seek medical help immediately, including: signs of pancreatitis (such as persistent nausea/vomiting, severe stomach/abdominal/back pain).

Although duraglutide by itself does not usually cause hypoglycemia (hypoglycemia), if this drug is prescribed with other diabetes medications, hypoglycemia may occur.
