GLP-1 Medications: What You Might Feel at First
GLP-1s slow stomach emptying—so food leaves your stomach more slowly. This can cause:
- 🤢 Nausea, bloating, or feeling overly full
- 🔥 Heartburn or indigestion
- 🚽 Constipation or diarrhea—especially when starting
Good News
These symptoms usually improve over a few weeks as your body adjusts.
- ⏳ Start low, go slow if possible
- 🥤 Small, slower meals; sip fluids between meals
